Fiddles and Snow

I’ve been spending a lot of time the last few weeks learning some new tunes.  When we’re are out playing music, I don’t carry any music with me so that means they are all up in my music part of the brain. 

I must smile at that thought because there are times when, no matter how hard you try to pry that beginning of a tune out of your mental library … it just won’t show up!!  That’s why I keep a list on my phone that has the first 3 notes of the tune.  It’s kind of like when something is just out of your reach, even though you’re standing on your tippy toes and have your entire body and arms outstretched just as far as you can, and you still can’t quite reach it.  You need a boost and that little boost, whether large or just tiny, is all you need to grab it!  That’s what those first three notes of a song are for me.  It works! 

Right now, I’m watching three fiddlers daily and finding it fun to see the tunes we have in common and hearing tunes that grab my attention and I want to learn.  The list is long … and I have to reign myself in with one tune at a time.  Wait … who am I kidding!!  I keep ten tunes to learn at a time and when I’ve got one learned I add the next one.  Are you able to only work on one tune at a time?  It seems like that has never worked for me!!!

Where oh where is spring?

I know, I know … embrace the glistening snow with its crystals that are infinitely different and unique.  Long for their freedom and grace as they float toward the ground or swirl in the breeze.  Embrace the beauty of the leafless trees as they hibernate until the warm sun of spring touches the tips of their branches.  Appreciate the distance that you can see through the leafless limbs … the view that is gone once the trees leaf out and are full and green.

Embrace the crunch of the ground as you walk through the yard.  The dried leaves on the ground … the crunch of the sleeping grass … gone is the green flowing lawn of summer.  Spring will come again and bring along with it all of the new life that blossoms in both plants and animals.

Embrace each day and welcome it in.

Be the best you that you can be.

Each day is a new beginning.  Grab it!!!

Thank you for stopping by the blog!!!
