Takin' the Long Way


Originally, I was going to call this blog "Takin' the Long Way Around" after one of my favorite Dixie Chicks songs from their most recent album. The idea being that - like the song - I've always lived my life by my standards. I've done my best to believe that even if I was taking the long way around, the path less traveled, if I believed strongly enough in that... my life would eventually fall in place.

Nowadays, I'm feeling like I'm taking the long way around...
And wasting my time, not becoming inspired.
"Well, I fought with a stranger and I met myself.
I opened my mouth and I heard myself..
It can get pretty lonely when you show yourself;
Guess I could have made it easier on myself.
But I, I could never follow.
No I, I could never follow.
Well, I never seem to do it like anybody else -
Maybe someday, someday I'm gonna settle down;
If you ever want to find me I can still be found.
Taking the long way,
Taking the long way around..."
