So my beat goes on...

Sure it does!
In that Sonny and Cher classic ditty, The Beat Goes On,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=to0irFedGqc they were referring to the musical beat, but in most oldies but goodies like myself, wow, that was not self-deprecating at all more like bragging, oops better keep that full of me at bay! Although, referring to our heartbeats! And delve further and so does the song! 
Too many youngsters wth heart diseases in spite of doing everything right!
So forgive if you do not want to give me "my" analogy!
Heartbeat vs. musical beat in some of them at times can be the same!
Have you ever felt the ecstatic feeling that music can give to you?
Like being born all over?
Notice I did not say "born again", not in my wheelhouse, forgive from those believers, please.
Of course, there is a point to all this, and no I am not stalling to figure out where I am going with the said point, oh alright maybe I am... as above and if you should decide to click on that hotkey above that takes you directly to the song sung by the two who explain melodiously that indeed the beat goes on in so many forms!
So in my small brain, it would be in your best interest to hit that hotkey and really listen to those lyrics! I'm just saying... it should be my rather long mantra!

Oh, glorious day!
Were times more simple then?
The mid to late1970's?
Oh wait, I was a wife and mother with two small children, sure it was all that, but never simple!
And those earlier rock icons kept us all dancing and singing!
Sure Cher is still here doing her thing, and as well as ever even at her senior age which she proves is "Just a Number"!
And that makes me sad.
Why one might ask?
Since I am younger than her and feel not so much like the old/younger me!
I must try harder in spite of everything!
So my beat can mean all those things mentioned in that song!
That really, really, really COOL SONG!
Here's hoping your beat goes onto infinity and beyond!
Oh, wait that is from Toy Story!
Hope they don't charge me for that, Nah who me? 
I won't tell them and I know I can count on you too!
Hope you arrived at my point somewhere in here.

So tonight I am grateful that many of my beats still go on, and I wish that for all of you too!

Happy goodnight to all!

Count those blessings and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!

I did this so I will be.
