Podcast #50 - It's Not Easy  

I'm having a bad freaking day! Which is funny because I was having a bad day when I wrote this a couple of weeks ago. But, then it was about everything being so cold and dark outside. Part of it was the change of seasons and the other part was just how vicious the world seemed to be. I think it was the midterm elections plus every news story was something horrific. I felt incredibly vulnerable and didn't want to even venture out into the world much. And, that's how I feel again except now everything feels like a personal attack on my senses. I'm not blaming the world here. I know part of it is just me and my hypersensitivity. But, I'm not going to dismiss my own feelings either. It's a bit much, people. I'm in need of some peace and I'm feeling like it's about time to hibernate, take a few weeks and get myself in better frame of mind. Hot chocolate and Flight of the Conchords marathon...

Here. Two weeks ago I wanted to share this pic of the sky during our cold snap. The harshness got the better of me and I couldn't bring myself to post it. I keep trying.





It’s Not Easy


Winter comes again
We go into hiding
Bundle up and shield against the wind
Forget the sun is shining
Tell me that it’s only where we are
Temporary distance from a star
But nothing feels the same
The world turning away
We’re not meant to be so far

It’s a cold wind outside
for my heart open wide
It’s not easy
It’s not easy
It’s not easy
It’s not easy

It doesn’t feel safe
The way the world keeps changing
So many decisions that were made
Some that need re-making
Tell me that the best is yet to come
Tell me every wrong can be undone
I need a ray of hope
Say I’m not alone
I can’t be the only one

It’s a cold wind outside
for my heart open wide
It’s not easy
It’s not easy
It’s not easy
It’s not easy

If all it takes is one who cares
Then, just in case, someone is there
I’m praying
If all it takes is one who cares
Then let me know that you can hear me
I’m praying,
I’m saying…

It’s not easy
It’s not easy
It’s not easy
It’s not easy
