Good morning, CoSo!
The world never stops moving. It's a relentless crush and grind of competing forces, all moving at a breakneck pace, uncaring of what may get destroyed as it hurls itself along.
But you're not obliged to try to keep up with the rush until you fall down and get run over. You're allowed to step out of the traffic, find a place away from the roar of the crowd, and just settle into yourself. Embrace silence. Be what you are when a thousand demands aren't tugging at you.

🎧 Dusty Springfield, "The Very Best of..." The 20 songs on this 1998 collection comprise pretty much the cream of Dusty's 60's hits (with the odd omission of "Windmills of Your Mind"). I re-arranged the running order so that it would be chronological instead of the seemingly random program as released. Dusty was one of a kind, she picked the right songs, and arranged the shit out of the vocals.

Thinking about the many folks here who have loved ones with serious health concerns (physical and psychological)
Some of you are near at hand to help out, others are worrying from afar
But you are forging on with hurting hearts as you live adjacent to someone in jeopardy
You are seen, you are supported
