Haunting Song from the Past

Does this ever happen to you . . . . You’re driving down the road, radio on full blast, wind blowing in your hair, and you hear it. You know, that song. The one that at one point in your life was a really good song, until someone else attached some bad memory to it. Now, every time you hear it, you just switch off the radio. You don’t even bother turning stations, or skipping to another song, you just flip it off!

This annoyed me one day. I was driving down the road and heard that song. I had just had a most wonderful day with my husband, lots of fun in the sun, great food, lots of friends. It made me realize that I did still like that song, just not the memory attached to it. So, why can’t I change that!! Why do I have to give power to a bad memory and ruin a perfectly good song?

I changed it all at that very moment! Right then and there I attached a whole new set of memories to it, and Ta-Da, old song ~ new memories!!

Now when I hear it, I think of a very happy, very wonderful life! One in which my past is non-existent!!

So long sucker!
