Another Beautiful Day
Been somewhat of a busy day but just woke up from a well needed nap after running my errands this morning, and finally the irrigation company showed up to fix a leak on my yard irrigation pump that they had already repaired a month ago. Then a run to Guitar Center for a 1 of a kind strap lock for my acoustic guitar. I blame my nap on Lotus lol as he made my mind run all night thinking of his issues and his songs. Even though I pop in on occasion, some of you I think of often. Lotus, you inadvertently started my mind running last night as Thinking of what you accomplished. I hate to keep repeating myself but I spent 32 years in the medical field 14 years in the ER and 18 as Lt/FF/Paramedic with a large Fire Department here where a injury took my career away. But that was my prior life. I then had to reinvent a new purpose in life when I found this site. Lotus, whether you realize it or not, found a way to help both yourself, others members here and believe it or not even the Psychologist and Psychiatrist by your songs. The average human brain weighs approximately 10-12 pounds , it is our most complex organ and we use only about 10% of it. Psychiatrist use what’s called a DSM book. ( it’s thick as hell ) but it basically goes through personality traits and habits. That’s how your given a diagnosis. If you ever get a chance look through it. You’ll find out everyone suffers from Borderline Personality Disorders. But Psychiatrists who prescribes your meds usually have regimen Try this one first, if it doesn’t work we,ll try this one so on and so on. Some are very predictable depending on your diagnosis and usually have good outcomes. But Lotus, your songs can be a teaching tool to these professionals. It will help them understand more of what’s going on. In a song, your spilling your heart. In a office appointment setting, most never truly open up to what’s really going on. In your songs you open up completely. I bet MD students in that field can learn a lot just by listening to them. You might have found your purpose! It took me 7 years after my injury and surgery to find mine. Keep it up. If you need help just yell. ( I’m a past army vet as well ). I hope everyone is having a blessed day and finding a place to keep out of the heat! P.S. Plenty of water all !……David
