a note of strange happenings...

on this last day of November this year,i woke up with a headache,from sinus pain... it has been a very strange night,and very strange year,because i am listening to jazz music,and some blues music,which even though i have a very good music collection,i do not listen to it very often... listening to jazz music,and blues music does not make it strange,but i have thought about people who i adored growing up,and people who i so deeply miss from my heart... odd thing is when i started this,i was listening to a song by John Coltrane,one of my all-time favorite artists,and i recognized it right off... it was not one of his well known ballads,but people,what a horn he played(tenor saxophone)!!!!!!! for some reason,for most of the last eighteen hours,i have had the television off,and i have just done small things,thought about people who i deeply love,and loved(just being quiet,as i put it),and to tell you the honest truth,i have really enjoyed the quiet time... this night reminded,and still reminds me of who i really am(oh my,someone at Sirius XM must love John Coltrane,because there is the second ballad,of his,in last three on Real Jazz,now three of four)... waking up like i have,minus the headache,reminds of the time with my mother in Cayucos,because i used to put on some Coltrane,just sit down,be quiet,like i am now,and just remember what and who i loved... right now,they should just rename Real Jazz Real Coltrane,because they are playing a ton of Coltrane this hour,which i deeply love... i started to write this,talking about people who i deeply miss,and love,and yet,this is the greatest way to wake up,and i only wish that i woke up every day like this,because this is a day that i will always remember... i have the biggest smile,and memories are flowing(and tears)... folks,i do not care a whit... maybe,just maybe,i needed this from my heart,so i am enjoying this no end,and with that little nugget of truth,i simply end this... this is strange,folks,but i love it...
