It's disconcerting to realize that I've probably lived more than half of my life. Still, as a recent iTunes shuffle mode pairing reminded me, it's comforting to remember that overall, it has been--and still is--a positive experience. Hearing Willie Wright's "It's Only Life, That's All" followed by James Taylor's "Secret O' Life" reminds me that a lot of positive people and pets have been--and continue to be--critical parts of the journey.
It also reminds me that as much as I like those songs individually, I should let their meanings sink in all the more by listening to them back to back.
