January seems a good time to update the blog, doesn't it?
I'd like to do that without the heavy sense of "resolution" that's so often associated with New Year's.
Instead, I'd like to think of gentle, small steps...the space of a blank page...the relief of dropping off three bags of clothes and toys at Value Village tonight. That's the "happy new" for me...happy new openness...contented letting-go.
I'll write another song this week for "Take5" . It'll be my 50th song for the program this week! When I think of all those songs piling up, sometimes I feel regret that I can't somehow elevate them all or promote each one. When I'm in that frame of mind I feel claustrophobic, and no new songs come.
But when I feel free to let them go, one at a time, I find the creative space I need to write another one.
