Begin the day believing
something wonderful will
happen. Not just any day,
but today. It could.
Think of not what could
go wrong, but what will
go remarkably right.
You’ve got all day, what
will happen? What do
you want to happen?
Make it happen.

Do you do what gets done
out of obligation or
out of joy?
Do you care?
Where do
I start?
So much to do
every day. So little
gets done.
I know.
Do you judge a day
based on how much
was accomplished?
Do you?
Do you
end your day regretting
what was not completed,
or
do you end the day
looking forward to
tomorrow?
Where do
I begin?

There are days where your vision is not clear, when you find it difficult to look past what is before you to see your true intentions.
You know what you need to do but lately, day after day, you don’t get it done.
You can’t see where you are headed, but know you will get there. That’s how strong your true vision is, or how strong it needs to be.
Look past the barriers.
Nothing can stop you once you stop stopping yourself.

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

David Crosby has been a strong voice in my musical atmosphere for more than four decades.
When I was 12 years old, the album 4 Way Street was left behind at our home after one of my brother’s parties and I became lured into the world of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Through the years, more albums by the quartet, or solo albums by individual members, or in parings or trios would find their way into my ever-growing record collection.
CSNY were all musicians that demanded attention because of the sound and the songwriting. Crosby, along with Graham Nash, provided the soaring harmonies on so many beautiful songs of an era.
Sadly, this week, David Crosby passed away.
His legacy remains. You can still hear it.
