Keeping it light

I am pondering the words, "keep it light". My life has been anything but light for the past few years. I could use this space that I have somehow grown to love in the few short hours I have owned it, to pour out my woes, analyze my feelings, share my heartbreak. But I have learned that there is a time to do those things, and there is a time to stop doing those things.
Does one really heal when one is so busy focusing on the healing???. Or does one move forward by eventually trying a different angle?
So, I have decided not to use this space at this time for my original intent and try to something new. There's a whole other side of me that has been shut down. Maybe it's time to explore the sillier side of me, the side of me that wonders if cows are really as sad as they look.
So, today, I am giving of myself. I am volunteering some time to set up for a fundraiser tonite.
The fundraiser benefits my favorite cause. My favorite new friend will be there helping as well, and this makes me happy.
So, while I am sure I will still need to stop and deal with the feelings, or analyze some situations, I do not have to stay there.
You never know when someone will say something to you and those words will stick with you for awhile. Today, the words "keep it light" will carry me through the day.
