Just let your love flow...OK?

I am a central Illinoisan.  We can find beauty in each of the seasons.  Ask nearly any one of us what our least favorite month is…I will bet it is February.  I am convinced that is why it is the shortest month. 


 Poor Feb is so dreary and cold.  March usually shows us some hope of warmer weather.  Not this March.  It is March 21st and it is 20 degrees outside.  The sun is taunting us out there making us believe it is warm.  Not cool, sun…not cool.  





  I was driving to work the other day with nothing but negativity on my mind…you know, man I hate getting up early.  Man I hate that dumb yellow line.  Man that stupid naked tree is making me mad.  Stuff like that.  Looking for inspiration or simply a change of pace, I turned from
 the usual public radio station to an oldies station. 




The Bellamy Brothers were playing – Let Your Love Flow.  The first 2 lines grabbed me and didn’t let me go for the rest of the song.  


The sun came out in my dark cranky soul and hasn’t set yet.  Isn’t it funny how a song can do that to you?  I have listened to it a dozen times since then and it is still making me feel warm…from the inside. 


Go ahead…try it.
