Day 5: What Song Inpires You

Monday Meditation

Burdens are the foundations of ease and bitter things the forerunners of pleasure.

This one I struggle with, but in lieu of this week's line up of events, it's a good one to think about.

Monday Meditation

I'm switching gears and trying something different.  While I was contemplating what I should blog about this week (and coming up completely short on anything humorous), I thought I should try to do a themed day sort of post... Something with a title that shows my prowess for alliteration. 

So I thought of things like "Monday Moan" "Monday Melancholy" "Monday Mayhem" and realized I was having issues coming up with anything positve that has to do with a Monday.  I honestly can't say if it had to do with the particular day of the week or my current mood, either way, I wasn't pleased with it.  So, finally, I opted for Monday Meditation. 

Every Monday I will try to come up with some type of quote or saying or something that will possibly induce a little more positive minded thought (and I promise in the future there won't be as much babbling).  So, for my very first Monday Meditation, I picked a quote from one of my favorites:

Do not grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.

Reminds me that while things might seem bad and impossible, eventually whatever you've lost: your car keys, a person, friendship, love...

you'll find again.
