Blog envy...

I never ever thought that I would become competitive again in life, since I am in the last quarter.
Yep, that’s right, if you count in twenty year intervals with wiggle room of a few additional years, and then you would have what I hope for and that is living past eighty, which none of my parents or my half brother did!
Anywho…I would be amiss if I did not mention a Blog on this Blog Spot that has made me cry, giggle and reminisce and moved me to all sorts of strange thoughts and emotions all this from a Facebook friend’s Blog; powerful highly recommend it to all!
MS Music and Me: http://andisue.blogspot.com/

I am not what anyone would call a ‘Blogger Maven’ quite yet but this is one anyone who wants current great information on MS methods, procedures and wants a walk down memory lane of Broadway shows that I have a personal knowledge of living in basically an actors and dancers musicians neighborhood growing up outside of Manhattan, NYC and getting to go to most all the shows as a child or at the very least to Radio City on every holiday!
This gal was a performer I suspect but she never says if it’s off Broadway or on.
I personally had the privilege of being able to take advantage of all that talent in the neighborhood with dance, piano and singing lessons, and I had a brief encounter as Peter in Peter Pan at camp, but we won the pennant that week, not to mention all those recitals, and a small part in an off Broadway children’s company, called Thunderbird Teen Corporation out of Ridgewood NJ, where I was in the cast of Bye Bye Birdie! I also sang at my Dad’s place of business too, and was in school choir for many years.
Her memories brought back many of mine too, commonalties, yep we all got them and we touch on them that’s good writing…hmm...

But the bottom line is I can’t change me.
I am who I am…
And boy sometimes I am definitely not happy with whom I have evolved into, but at least I am honest with those feelings.
The world is big enough to fit all personas.
Some though may be wondering why I have changed the name of my Blog for the very first time tonight.
Well, to be honest until I heard it was the number one Beatle song ever, and that made me gush internally thinking because when I chose A Day in The Life it was not for that grand a reason, it was much more simplistic to tell you about a chronological day in my life. And personally, don’t tell anyone, I didn’t even remember the song, shame on me, or the lyrics, which I finally got around to reading, would you believe today and to tell you all the truth I was not at all happy with what they said!
And thus the name change.
‘Perpetuity’, for those who don’t know which I am sure is few and far between is usually “a legal estate term for an annuity payable forever or eternity or the quality of the state of the condition of an estate limited so that it will not take effect or vest within the period fixed by law.” Thanks again to Webster Dictionary.
Not that I will be living to eternity but like so many things in life that live on after us that is what this Blog means to me; my legacy to my family, a bit of my heart soul and attitude for all to see now or when I am gone.
Morbid?
Nah, how many of you out there have a favorite item from a loved one?
Be it jewelry, clothing pictures or what have you?
This is my 21st Century, sounds like a real-estate firms, concept of that trinket left with love and understanding that we all need one another and the one thing that no one can deny is that simple as that friends... but most would say not words but time and true concern and contact is what we all need.
Visit a shut in and let them know you really care in person.
Words are great but time given out with generosity and physically being there shouts volumes!
Be sure to know that I love you all as you are and so don’t change a thing for me, be you!

On that sappy ending, but honest ending to my tonight’s Blog please count those blessings and share your overages, and have a very happy good night and we will too!

And next time be here or be square, OK?
