Carole King
“Jazzman”

Lift me, won’t you lift me above the old routine
Make it nice, play it clean, Jazzman

When the Jazzman’s testifyin’
A faithless man believes
He can sing you into paradise
Or bring you to your knees
It’s a gospel kind of feelin’
A touch of Georgia slide
A song of pure revival
And a style that’s sanctified

Jazzman, take my blues away
Make my pain the same as yours
With every change you play
Jazzman, oh, Jazzman

When the Jazzman’s signifyin’
And the band is windin’ low
It’s the late night side of morning
In the darkness of his soul
He can fill a room with sadness
As he fills his horn with tears
He can cry like a fallen angel
When risin’ time is near

Jazzman, take my blues away
Make my pain the same as yours
With every change you play

Oh, lift me, won’t you lift me with every turnaround
Play it sweetly, take me down, oh, Jazzman

Hello Sheba😘
So sorry to hear about your niece. Just when we think and hope things will be better, someone we love or know is getting this virus. Prayers to her and her family and I hope she will be feeling better soon.
Strange weather indeed. I had just finished a post to Oodiebom yesterday evening and was heading outside to do some yard work, when Hubby stuck his head inside the door and said to look outside. A storm was headed our way. I quickly took Jewel outside and just as she was about to tinkle, Kaboom!⚡️🌧. Well, she hopped up and headed for the door. We had heavy wind and rain, mixed with different hail sizes from pea to golf ball size. Thankfully we didn’t have any serious damage.
Today was beautiful, with a gentle cool breeze. I’ll send some your way so you’ll have a nice evening for your walk. ❤️

Saying more prayers for your niece.🙏 Does she have any idea how she got it? I am not up to date on Colorado’s restrictions or their school policies. Some of our schools are back, some are not. The city is letting the kids decide if they want to go back or stay at home with remote learning.

Hockey team looked like they were skating in their sleep last night, lost to a non-playoff team.😣 Another game tonight, hope they wake up from their dream.😴 Husband is all set for his trip tomorrow, will be back Saturday afternoon. No plans for me except very little cooking, yay! I will decide hour by hour what I feel like doing or not doing.🙄

If you have any more problems with Poppy’s pills, try peanut butter. Jake loves it, you could shove a truck down his throat with it. We always used it at the shelter, there was a jar by every kennel. Plus it sticks in their mouths and they end up swallowing the pill.

May the 4th be with you. 😘💕😎

Healing Childhood Wounds

We all have the ability to heal ourselves from childhood pain at the deepest level

Events from childhood, our first experiences, have the power to shape our lives. Some do so immediately, offering us challenges to overcome and encouragement to make use of our talents and interests. In the process character is built, and we make the first steps upon our personal paths. Other events seem to lay dormant until adulthood, when our closest relationships help to bring out the deepest aspects of ourselves. This is when unexamined lessons can be put to use and untended childhood wounds make themselves known in a call for healing.

We may discover issues of trust coming up, or perhaps we find ourselves mirroring actions from our past instinctively. No matter the case, we have the power within us to heal ourselves at the deepest level. With the wisdom of an adult, we can be the loving parent or guardian we needed as a child. Knowing that we are each whole spiritual beings having a human experience, we can nurture ourselves from that wholeness, and then reach out to others as well. We can recreate scenarios in our mind’s eye, trying different outcomes and following them to their logical conclusions. In doing so, we may be able to imagine possible reasons a situation occurred as it did, and even accept that it could not have happened any other way. With the wisdom born from age and experience, we might be able to see events from a different perspective, bringing new understanding and freeing ourselves from any hold the past may have on us.

Life offers opportunities to clear these weeds in the gardens of our souls. However, when we want to focus on easier and more pleasant tasks, we are likely to pass up the chances, leaving the wounds to continue to drain our energy and resources for living life fully today. We might find we need support to face the events of the past, so turning to a trained professional who can offer tools for healing can be a valid choice. As long as we remember that the child we were lives on within us, we are always free to go back and right old wrongs, correct mistaken perceptions, heal wounds, forgive, and begin anew. AMEN! 🌹
