Already August. I dread the winter.
Things may not get better.
Even today, it looks like rain.
I don't care for the weather.

I don't see the night anymore.
I don't see the light anymore.

Stuck somewhere in the middle.

Time passes by so fast.
I don't feel a thing.
You'd think at least I'd feel the wind,
or a cyberspace ping.

I don't see the night anymore.
I don't see the light anymore.

Stuck somewhere in the middle

with no song to sing.

Smile Dixie Angel...you make others sing, when your song is muted. Make no mistake, you are always in the light.

love you!

Yo Passing shadows,

Always remember Fall is for fun, and it's right around the corner.

Dear Dixie!

That's your song-- Most songs are sung from emotions that person is feeling. Sing your emotions out and there the key to the gates of light will be revealed...

I do hear your song, though it is a sad one right now, dear Dixie! But your heart is yearning, it is alive.

Breathe consciously, inhale and exhale and feel yourself, while you live the life you have been gifted with. Open to life and welcome its emotions, sadness is bound to pass and give way to new joy. Trust.

Love and hugs.

If you don't have a song to sing then try to at least find a tune to hum until if finds it's own words.  Nice to read you again.

I feel your pain, Dixie.

Aren't you in FL - the "Sunshine State"?

You should be up here. July set a "wet" record and August is shaping up to be just as damp and is just plain CHILLY so far. I am up here in Toronto fearing impending fostbite and you are down there dreading a little drizzle.

TRADE YA!
Now please Cheer up. Look on the bright side... you could be spending a lot more on your air conditioning bill.

Love Ya, ((((Lots of HUGS)))

You have a song, Dixie...
I hear the music now...

of power the world will know peace."
