Here I am like Maria in the Sound of Music. I so enjoyed my Dance Moment on the mountain.

Podcast Recap

Inspired by supportive comments from BC Dave, I enjoy some wonderful moments up at the next to upper Zen spot where I ponder about persistence in the face of challenges and perceived failure. I’m grateful to BC Petra for her kind video message and for new iTunes reviews from Australia and the UK. We also hear from BCs Kelly and Dawny. For today’s dance moment I challenge you all to have a Funky 60 second Dance Party like I did on the mountain. As proof I posted a video of my Funky Mountain Dance to IG as LaurieDreamWeaver.

You can see the next to upper Zen place is an island of welcome shadow for recording despite the hot sun.

Lyrics

The spotlight, was burning like a flame
I was, a body and a name
And all the rest was gone

Trapped like a hermit in a cage
I left the others on the stage
And still the show went on

Take a bow, from the back of the crowd
It’s over now

And I now see
The world turns without me
My shoulders never bore the heavy burden
I was just another person

And the sun rose
Before the age of pharaohs
And after I am gone, another dawn will fill the sky
With no goodbye

I crave the comfort and control
Then chase the rabbit down the hole
And wonder why I’m lost

I build a palace so serene
Then douse it all with gasoline
I light a match and watch

Let it burn, without an ounce of concern
I never learn

[Chorus]

And I’m steering, away from what I’m fearing
But every twist and turn’s a new concern that burns my soul

The rudder’s rusted tight and I’m careening through the night
I let it go and take me where it will

[Chorus]

I feel A-OK about myself as I get ready to explore my local park for a good podcast spot.

Podcast Recap

My feet keep me from hiking, but I find a new podcast spot down at the park. Overcoming disordered eating as an Identity. Finding love for ourselves with a cool mirror exercise. Hello to new BCs Martha, Carrie and SAN (AKA Self Acceptance Newbie). Carrie listens to old and new episodes of COD and has questions. It’s ok to ask about past shows. Thanks for the financial support and 5-star reviews on iTunes. Mark tells how you can participate. BC Kelly G. touches my heart with her timely comments and Dawny comes through with understanding.

Ta Da! I feel fearless in the lull of the Devil Winds in front of our collection of momentarily silent wind-chimes in our front yard. They are held by a once vibrant plum tree that died. But that former tree has a new purpose as a hanger while a young plum tree grows alongside. Hmmm, a lesson in there somewhere!

I enjoy my birthday cookie, red wine, time with my good friend and my love. What could make a better birthday celebration?

Podcast Recap

My 59th birthday blast is filled with love and friends who care. After meditating during an early morning birthday hike up the mountain to the next to upper Zen spot, I share three words that best show my strengths and ask for yours. Birthday greetings and songs from Mark, Josephine, Mary S. and Jo from the U.K. Birthday comments from BC North. All the freebies I enjoyed on my birthday and how disappointments turned to blessings. A wonderful surprising medley of Happy Birthdays by different characters thanks to my voice acting friends. A new birthday version of Fionna’s Brave Companion Song.

Laurie smiles with her hiking hat flipped brim up with rolling foothills in the background.

I totally love my birthday ponder at the next to upper Zen spot!
