Finding Zen -OR- Happy Lucy Day!






All That You Dream- Paul Barrere & Bill Payne

I've been down, but not like this before
Can't be 'round this kind of show no more

All, all that you dream
Comes through shinin silver lining
Clouds, clouds change the scene
Rain starts washing all these cautions
Right into your life, makes you realize
Just what is true, what else can you do
You just follow the rule
Keep your eyes on the road that's ahead of you

I've been down, but not like this before
Can't be 'round this kind of show no more

All of the good, good times were ours
In the land of milk and honey
And time, time adds it's scars
Rainy days they turn to sunny ones
Livin' the life, livin' the life lovin' everyone

I've been down, but not like this before
Can't be 'round this kind of show no more
I've been down, but not like this before
Can't be 'round this kind of show no more


Strap it up, on and reinforce with duct tape. When it begins with
a fight over raising the debt ceiling, or worse yet, bungles the attempt, austerity will be unavoidable. The only question is how low can you go.

The growth career sector will be providing security.

We do live in interesting times.

A generally sad but unsurprising election outcome, with a few redeeming rays of sunshine.

Your post today captures the melancholy just as surely as a rainy day.

(Do you suppose we've been cursed by the Chinese, who've lent us beaucoup bucks? "May you live in interesting times", a cryptically famous curse of theirs.)

In the meantime, let us all fight on. Best, A.
