the good ole' days!

There is nothing like the perk, perk, perkiness
of a happy song from the 70's!
I was gifted with a Mama Cas
song this past week.
In the midst of grief "wave diving"
Mama Cas belted out a song
on my truck stereo that put all in perspective.


There's something groovy and good 'bout whatever we've got...
It's gettin' better...
growin stronger...
gettin' better everyday!


Just thinking if we had more Mama Cas
and sun-shiny 70's music:
we would have less people on
Prozac/Effexor/Paxil/Zoloft/Xanax....
we would have a bit more optimism
(even if it is polly-anna optimism)
we would all be happier. (just a bit happier)

You try it.
Put on some sun-shiny 70's music
and see if you don't smile or laugh.
Even if you have a tough facade to uphold...
deep down you will be smiling and laughing!

Mama Cas did her job
all these years later.
What a groovy, sun shiny morning,
singing my way back to Gatesville!
