Back to the Earth

Whenever my head starts to hurt
Before it goes from bad to feeling worse
I turn off my phone, I get down low
And put my hands in the dirt
I try to stop the world from moving so fast
Try to get a grip on where I'm at
To simplify this dizzy life,
And put my feet in the grass
I'm going back to the Earth
I'm going back to the Earth
I'm going back to work
I'm going back to the Earth

I first read about Jason Mraz in a New York Times article.   It spoke about a songwriter whose songs focus on optimism.  And then I heard his song "Back To The Earth"  and everything in me responded with a YES!  That was before I knew the song came from his album labeled "YES".
And this is what I said when my son and his wife asked Alyce and I to move onto the farm with them - YES!  Needless to say, when I bumped into Jason Mraz's song - IT WAS A SIGN!!  We all need signs!


That was in August and the above picture is last Friday - December 19th 2014. House sold, retirement setup and we will arrive January 17, 2015....

    Oh, yes. Kim, yes! We need signs. But the thing that makes all the difference is whether we follow them or not. Glad you followed. Looking forward to keeping up with your journey! Priyanka
