One day at a time.

Quite content...
to listen to their songs
throughout the day.


  Enjoy your day!

However, upon closer investigation at that time I realized that what was leaving, or falling away from me... was actually the parts of myself that I used to identify with these expectations of those around me. (and in some cases those from my past.)      Once this realization had occurred I began to feel the weight slowly lift fro...
