What Is Lonnie's Room?

There is a room in our home to which I navigate more frequently than the others. It makes me feel secure, it is cozy, and it is quiet. From the peak of the room, there is a large rusty metal angel suspended by a very thin wire. It would apear as if the angel is hovering over me, protecting, and always present. The lighting in the room creates a virtual display of dancing shadows around the angel.

Every evening when I am in "MY ROOM", I think of what Luciano de Crescenzo once said, "We are all like one-winged angels. it is only when we help each other that we can fly."

The Dance

I listen to a lot of country music,... mainly because I can understand what is being sung, and I like the melodies.  However, I have noticed that the male singers sing about their beautiful women and the women sing about cheating men.  Interesting, isn't it?  No matter what the song or who sings it, there are always phrases that catch my listening ear.  For instance... The Dance.... where Garth Brooks sings, "And now I'm glad I know the way it all would end, the way it all would go.   Our lives are better left to chance, I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance."  How many times in our own lives things have not gone the way we thought they would but the journey was an experience we would have otherwise missed?  That journey might have been filled with both joy and heartache, but the memories can often change the landscape of everything else in our life.  So... my advice to my readers....don't worry about the end... enjoy the moment.... enjoy the Dance!
