Day 4632: Reading

I appreciate you reading this blog, as I prepare for the last day of an intensive Balint group therapy training in Charleston, South Carolina.

At some point, I’ll be reading and singing to all the training participants these new lyrics I wrote to an old song.

.

Yesterday afternoon, my friend and fellow group therapist Mary enjoyed reading signs in Charleston:

Here’s what I’ll be reading when I get back to Boston:

Day 4485: Other people’s anger

I’ve spent too much of my life worrying about other people’s anger.

When I was a child and in the hospital dealing with heart problems, other people’s anger seemed very dangerous, so I practiced being a perfect and lovable patient.

Old habits die hard, but at this point in my life I know I can survive other people’s anger and that I can’t please everybody.

I even wrote a song called “Other People’s Anger.”

.

I don’t know whether “Other People’s Anger” or my other original songs are good enough to share on Spotify yet. I’ll be talking to my show biz coach, Jeff Leisawitz — who helped me overcome writer’s block and write songs including “Other People’s Anger” — this week about that.

Yesterday I met my beloved ex-sister-in-law Deborah at the fabulous Deluxe Town Diner in Watertown, and we discussed our own anger about how narcissistic leaders’ anger and greed are wreaking destruction world wide. I told her that I’m working on a sign which I’ll bring to join in with other people’s anger at protests next Saturday.

Do you see other people’s anger in my other images for today? If you do, do you care? I don’t!

Thanks to all who are here for this other-people’s-anger post, including YOU!

Day 3981: Change

Every time I change my haircut at MiAlisa Salon, I see this sign about change:

.

I like the way the nearby magazine is also about change; that’s why I didn’t change the framing of that shot.

Here are some quotes about change that I also wouldn’t change.

.

Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I have a sense of melancholy; what helps me change my attitude is writing this blog.

Do you see change in my other images for today?

.

The only day that didn’t change between those two lists is National Cake Day.

Here’s what I find when I look for change on YouTube.

Thanks to all who deal with change, including YOU.
