The 'oldies'...yes, I am a hopeless romantic, so boring and straight and stuck in the '70 and '80's....It's the 'folkish' type genre of music for me. I never liked the hard rock of that or any other era. The Doobie Brothers and BTO were about as 'hard' as I got.
A Facebook friend posted a James Taylor link of "The Water is Wide". That was all it took.
I have been glued to YouTube several hours this evening enjoying James, Carole King, Dan Fogelberg, and or course, John Denver.
Listening to these songs has caused time travel. Travel back to my younger days when my life was ahead of me. I still remember certain people and places that are associated with certain songs. It makes me long to revisit some of them. A few of the songs were wishes and dreams. Some of those have come to be. Some stir old feelings. All are a part of the younger me. A time that was good, fun, free, and spontaneous.
Yes, John, "Fly Away....Fly Away"....Now, I have been on the 'road of experience' and have found out who I am, but is there more to me? Will I ever be all that I should be? I suppose I will just enjoy the sweet ride and count the blessings on the journey and rejoice in the living day for our '"time has just begun".
