I woke up this morning hearing the phrase “let the music guide you home. Let music set you free.” Some people speak the language of math and science ~ I speak the language of music. Over a year ago, Brother Rick passed along the message to me from Clair that music would help set me free. Guide me Home. I had no idea what that meant at the time. Pursue my music? Really? AGAIN?!
Now I see that music speaks to me. Songs. Titles. Lyrics. Melody. I have shared here many times over the last few years music that has spoken to me. So when I heard this phrase this morning upon waking up (here – ha!), I felt perhaps there was some inspiration in that to motivate me out of the funk I had fallen into last night. Challenging day in the household. I have yet to master the ability to be around strong emotions and remain centered. I can – for a time – but I automatically shut down and it takes me 12-24 hours to bounce back.
So….my girl and I headed out today and drove around this end of town – venturing down streets we haven’t been on for a time. The song “Closing Time” was on the radio as I changed the station – the very last couple of moments. Hmm, I thought – Closing Time. Haven’t heard that one in a long long time.
10 minutes later or so, on a different station, that song comes on again. Ok – that was obviously a synchronicity for me that contained a message of some sort. I listened to the lyrics and soon was in tears. Here are the words that spoke most to my Heart:
I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
Take me home
Time for you to go back to the places you will be from.
Closing time
This room won’t be open ’til your brothers or your sisters come.
So gather up your jackets, and move it to the exits
I hope you have found a
Friend.
