An Anchor

I wanted to wait to post about this song because it makes me very emotional, and I can't even begin to explain why. I couldn't even understand in words why until...

This beautiful morning I was driving home from the Mesa Arizona LDS Temple. The sky grey and unfolding in front of me. Rain was poring in my open window. The road blackening as the water tumbled out of the sky and graced the road with it's presence. The sun rising creating a dim dusky light unvieling the beautiful brown of the dirt and green of the sparce trees. Rain like paint, falling out of the sky splashing the world with new radiant color. The smell drowning my nose with it's beautiful desert rain aroma. And this song, THIS SONG, flooding my ears. And it hit me,WHY? It doesn't matter.

Sometimes in life I ask why too often. Why am I so hyper, why am I so loud. Why do I feel sad, happy, angry, joyful? Why have I been so blessed. Why am I going through this. Why did they get cancer. Why not me? Why do I love to dance and sing? Why are girls/guys so hard to understand. Why does this song get me how it does?

well, IT DOESN'T MATTER! The beauty of life is sometime the indescribableness. It is what it is, why ask why. Life isn't always an algorithm. I want to begin today TAKING IT FOR WHAT IT IS. Life is gorgeous. Life is challenging. Life is a blast. Life is sad. Life is hilarious. Life is frustrating. Life is inspiring. Life is a dance. Life is a test. Life is what Life is. So find you some anchors and drop them in the bay. So you can just stop sailing and take life for what it is for even a moment.
Why? you may think...HEY the why doesn't always matter.
