Get Over the Blues

I had a serious case of the blues lately.  I went to a completely amazing convention and got sick.  When I got home, I was in such a bad way, that I had to phone my husband from the driveway to help me out of the car.  He's a sweetie and came running.  I've had a squeaky voice and cough all week and am only now starting to feel better.  So you might think I have a right to feel blue.

Don't you believe it!  Everything in everyone's life can change in a blink.  I know all about that.  Even though I came home sick, I also came home filled with opportunities to expand my work from networking, filled with joy from people who told me they loved my work, or that they were fans of Nights of Passion blog.  I absolutely love that.  Writing, editing, making new friends.  I love it all and was inspired.

I love blues music too and feel there's two parts to the blues.  There's the sadness or tragedy that becomes immortalized in song, then there's the victory in finding out something great, universal, or downright magical.  The blues is like a story you can't put down.  They both sing.
