Today’s inspiration: Deborah Harry, lead singer of Blondie.
Talk about the OG! Deborah Harry blazed a trail in music, fashion, and feminism. I plan to do a Deborah Harry Week in 2020, but today I will concentrate on the lyrics of Dreaming.
I sit by and watch the river flow
I sit by and watch the traffic go
Imagine something of your very own
Something you can have and hold
I’d build a road in gold just to have some
Dreaming, dreaming is free
Dreaming, dreaming is free
Dreaming, dreaming is free
Dreaming, dreaming is free
Let’s break it down…
I sit by and watch the river flow
I sit by and watch the traffic go
There is a meditation technique where you visualize your thoughts traveling past you down a river. As your thought leaves your sight, you let go of it and move on to the next thought in front of you. We can watch our thoughts without attachment. Let them float by.

Imagine something of your very own

When the chatter quiets, new thoughts will emerge. IMAGINE. Let your new thoughts float by and see what comes by next. The river’s source is ever-changing.

Dreaming is available to everyone. Give yourself this gift. Unwrap your imagination and enjoy!
Just for fun…Watch this video, then go out and be your own kind of rockstar!
