& So you wait....

No big secret. Stevie Wonder is definitely one of my favorite male musicians. Prince is the other :). Before there is any debate, note that I said "musicians"....other favorites of mine like Dwele, Rahsaan Patterson, Will Downing, Luther or even Raheem Devaughn aren't really musicians they're vocalists only. They don't play nearly as many (or some instances any) instruments as these two gentlemen or write music....
This song by Stevie is another one of my favorites...as a child I played both LP's from Songs in the Key of Life over and over without skipping one song & I hung on EVERY word in each song....I've said before that lyrics of a song are just as (if not more) important than the music...in Summer Soft, Stevie (in my interpretation of his lyrics) is singing about patience, waiting for the right time to address something or take action. "& So you wait to see what she'll do. Is it sun or snow for you, but it breaks your heart in two when you find it's October & she's gone...."
It speaks to me of timing. Waiting to see how something is going to play out, but if you wait too long, your time has past.....I'm not really an expert in the patience department. I'm kind of a "let's get this done" type of person. When I know something has to be done, I like to go ahead and take action. Most of the time not ALL of the time....The other percentage of the time is usually focused on others. How my actions will make them feel (affect them). Contrary to some peoples' beliefs I am an extremely considerate person. Even when I know I've been betrayed or wronged I will always try to consider the other person's feelings. I can look at this trait two ways, as a blessing and more recently a CURSE...
This curse is not allowing me to get past things or to move forward. This curse has me stagnant, in proverbial quicksand grasping at a lifeline that doesn't exist. This "curse" is a blessing for others involved. They get to be happy/content....But how do I get to be happy/content...I'll have to find that out...SOON
I thank and appreciate all who will read. Peace
