soundtrack

I have a six disc CD changer in my 2009 Mazda 3 Hatchback. Five out of six slots have been occupied by the same CDs for the past six years. 

They are a compilation of songs. Together, they paint a picture of a moment in time of my life. It wasn’t a necessarily good time.

In a way, they evoke sadness, but they also remind me of my strength and resiliency. 

As time has passed they have become familiar, offering me a sense of security.
But I am over the predictability.

As of today, the changer sits empty. I am ready to start listening to some different songs...better yet, it’s time to start making my own music.
