The song came on the radio…Someone to Watch Over Me…Linda Ronstadt version. Yes, her voice is amazing. Yes, her phrasing is perfect. Although the song was written in the 1920s, it is one of those ageless and timeless songs. It is as moving today as it was in any other time. Maybe even more so today.
Someone to watch over me…don’t we yearn for someone like that. Be present. Be committed. Be there. Be the harbor in the storm. Be the shoulder. Be the helping hand. Be the kind word. Be the quiet nod. Be the gentle smile. Be the voice that whispers…I am here and it will be fine.
You get so weary of the self absorbed boors. The reality show mentality of mini drama going no where moments. Don’t you want to just take a nice deep breathe, chill, and turn to the one who matters and say…don’t worry…I got you covered. I got your back. I am that one who is watching over you.Today…be that one.
Let me know if this rings true for you. Let’s make this song and thought a going forward life style choice. Look inward then step out and give the cover for someone who needs it today.
