The Radio

As I traveled over Thanksgiving weekend, I listened to the radio. I realize many of you are wondering what's the big deal about this, after all most people do listen to the radio when they travel. However, I have not listened to the actual radio for nearly three months. It was like every song was tied to a memory of the past nine years and I just couldn’t hear those songs without becoming emotional (sad, angry, annoyed, etc.); therefore, I have only been listening to the CD that my brother made for me. I realize I sound like somewhat of a nut but it felt so “freeing” to be able to listen to the radio again and not get emotional about it. I guess the joy of life is found in the small things. Yay for me!!
