Random Thought #2

FUTURE ADVISE TO MY SON

Live life like a Lynyrd Skynyrd song.  Wait?  What?  

Okay there I said it.  My Georgia, Eastern Kentucky blood comes to the fore front.  No, I’m not growing a mullet or putting a Trans Am up on blocks.  But there is something to be said about some Skynyrd.  And when I say live your life like some southern rock music I mean live it simply but effective.  Honest, full of love and life, moralistic, God fearing and most of all…rocking.  Now that’s not a bad way to live. 

This thought came to me to me about 5:30 this morning.  Not sure why, but the channel in my mind must have been tuned to the swamp music station.  But it was instantaneous, “live life like a Lynyrd Skynyrd song.”  I don’t know where this random crap comes from folks.  I’m apparently just the messenger.  So what ever the days you brings try to find a classic rock station, I’m sure Simple Man or Free Bird is playing somewhere.  Maybe you’ll have the same sleepless night epiphany that I had.

side note:  I’m sure the true meaning of this thought will hit in the middle of the night sometime.  I’ll try to relay that peril of wisdom when it happens.
