Take a New Picture

The Daily 300

If you want something different, do something different…anything.  Color your hair; change your bedtime to an hour earlier; don’t let that bully at work push you around anymore.  Change takes action – not that same old action that you’ve been taking though. 

Take a look around now

Change the direction

Adjust the tuning

Try a new translation

Don’t look at your man in the same old way

Take a new picture

Just because you don’t see shooting stars

Doesn’t mean it isn’t perfect

can’t you see…

It’s the stuff that dreams are made of

It’s the slow and steady fire

It’s the stuff that dreams are made of

It’s your heart and soul’s desire

It’s the stuff that dreams are made of

Yes, those are the brilliant lyrics of singer songwriter, Carly Simon.  That song saved my ass from giving up many times.  There is such a simple truth in the words that you can’t deny it’s profound message.  It’s my message for you today.  You may not see the “new picture” right away, but keep trying; it will come.  Be well-be beautiful.
