Day 3 - 53 -- Coping with Music

First day back after break, and it was over full with little tasks that needed to be done today. Feelings of stress didn't help things move forward as well as I'd have liked -- as in faster <smile>. All things on the lists were crossed off today -- a rare event. Tomorrow will have a new list to do within the calendar day, but with the assistance of friends, everything will be completed.

Feeling anxious can create difficulties when trying to do ordinary activities. One's mind wanders making driving less than ideal. Sleep can be disrupted so one can't expect to have usual brain functioning without adequate rest. Word finding abilities fail. Short term memory disintegrates. What causes anxiety? That isn't an easy answer as there are more potential causes than one could readily count. Generally, there is some change involved -- something that is not easily controlled. Trying to find a way to relax even briefly may help cope -- like finding a way to centre and just be.

Today a calming song came to mind. The group singing is iconic and the lyrics well known. Enjoy!

Let it Be -- The Beatles
