Thursday, I Think Seriously, About Stupid Shit
It’ll Shine When It Shines
(Steve Cash / John Dillon)the old cat on the roof
he could stand a little push
’cause he’s got nine good lives to live
but like my momma said
you only live till you’re dead
and you got to give and give and givethere’s a pebble in the pond
goin’ on and on,
makin’ waves and tides and ripples and rings
there’s a leaf in the wind
that don’t know where to end
chasin’ days and ways and wishes and dreamsseems like ev’ry one
is out lookin’ for the sun
singin’ rain and pain on he who hesitates
but it’ll shine when it shines
you might think I’m wastin’ time
but I’m just a good old boy that’s learned to waitwhippoorwill’s in the dawn
pretty soon, he’ll be gone
and he’s got one good song to sing
but like my daddy said,
it’s in your heart, not your head
and you got to sing and sing and singthere’s a window in the wall
lookin’ out on it all
leavin’ fears and tears and troubles alone
there’s a fire in the stove
keepin’ out the cold,
warmin’ wine and winters and babies and homesseems like ev’ry one
is out lookin’ for the sun
singin’ rain and pain on he who hesitates
but it’ll shine when it shines
you might think I’m wastin’ time
but I’m just a good old boy that’s learned to wait
yes, I’m just a good old boy that’s learned to wait

Have you ever said or done something offhandedly… unthinkingly…. then found out later your words or actions affected someone else so deeply it changed their life?
Have someone else’s words or actions caused a life-changing experience in you?
Are you doing what you shine at?

well at the time I didn’t know that….
who selflessly promoted my work~ sight unseen! who changed my life by making me feel like a part of something, rather than an outsider.
Friends who make you laugh, or giggle hysterically(at yourself)… who make you see things in a new light…who never fail to show up, just to say ‘hey’…
these are the jewels of my lifetime…. the stars in my crown…
but it’s time to party.
