The Sound of Carefree is a Cynthia Alexander song

Today, I woke up from a bad dream. It was one of the people I'd been running away from and in my dream, I confronted this person of everything I had to and proceeded to launch into a shouting match.

Needless to say, I woke up with a racing heart and that sinking feeling yet again. To dissipate the negative feelings so early in the morning, I had been wandering all over the internet and one Cynthia Alexander song triggered a whole truckload of youthful nostalgia --- those days of waking up in the morning, being free of responsibilities, of no worries, completely no worries, of windy air and dipping toes into the pool, of knowing there's a whole lifetime ahead of us to worry --- except for today.

And for now, we will all be carefree. And to underscore today, the sound of carefree is Cynthia Alexander.

{And just in case you were curious, here are some of my favorite Cynthia Alexander songs}

Motorbykle

now we have come
to our hi-ways' end
run along now & carry on
&
embrace the changes
sanctify this distance
we're certified experienced
to do it all again
but we get what we deserve
& we pay for what we get
here is the game and
here is the cycle
while I ride my motorbykle
here is the game
& here is the cycle
while I ride my motorbykle
ride

Comfort in your strangeness

 woke up this morning
I was staring at the ceiling cracks
and roadmaps and highways and landscapes
I have seen
I have been
to places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in Your strangeness
Of moving shadows when I call the wind by name
rushing Firewater in the dark of a cloud

U and I

sometimes in the dusk
when the sky bleeds certain shades
the color in between us
is the sky that binds us
never-ending you
begin on & on & on
I only know
U are for real

I wish you all a carefree weekend, too!
