I rushed over to write because the day is getting long, and I had something to start with, but in the time that I got up from the couch and over to the desk, I have forgotten. This happens more often than not...maybe what I was thinking of writing wasn't such a great idea or maybe it's for another day.
Time will tell.
Getting dressed this morning, I had an urge to listen to James Taylor...not sure why, but I did. So, I pulled up a playlist on Spotify and turned on Sonos. The first song was "Going to Carolina in My Mind." In juxtaposition of the title of the song, my mind had gone to James Taylor...his to Carolina.
Life and thoughts are unpredictable. Perhaps memories are shorter on balmy thunderstorm clattered days...
Whatever it is, I don't have any philosophical rhetoric.
I do, however, have this to contribute...We never know where our minds will take us. The journey is often unpredictable and often does not make sense until hindsight.
No matter. Today, I went to James Taylor in my mind, to Carolina in my mind, to a speaker's conference to lunch with a whole hog, to home...and soon, to a wedding.
Such is the path of life. Fraught with the unpredictable; yet, full of meaning in reflection.
I will go many places in my mind. I will go many places with each forward and backward step of my feet.
Backward, forward...I am moving and there is purpose in the movement.
Time will tell.
