A key word that you will see:

Fragmentation: a mental process where a person becomes intensely emotionally focused on one aspect of themselves, such as “I am angry” or “no one loves me,” to the point where all thoughts, feelings and behavior demonstrate this emotional state, in which, the person does not or is unable to take into account the reality of their environment, others or themselves and their resources. This is a term that my therapist and I use and is on the continuum of dissociation.

"Under the Sun" ~ Nick Granato

While surfing the Internet (COWABUNGA!!!),came across this uplifting song that I wanted to share. It is Nick Granato with Stella Parton.

UNDER THE SUN
duet w/Stella Parton
Words & Music by Nick Granato

Another new day begins to dawn, Yesterday slipped by and now its gone.. Nothing left to leave but whats left behind Another brand new day the skies are blue, Today seems to be so overdue, Its been long, but I guess its just in time (and)

(Chorus)
Here we go again, back to start here at the end, Déjà vu, its been said, its been done, And here we go again, Looking forward to where weve already been, Yet we run, thats true, But theres still nothing new Under the sun

Been looking for a change in atmosphere, But nothing ever will be crystal clear, Cause every angle has a different point of view, So friends come and strangers go, And everyday is out of our control, Situations change but it all remains the same (and)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Lifes an endless circle, it just repeats itself, And its all been tried, somewhere in time, By somebody else

So the planet turns round and round, And we look up to see if God looks down, It goes to show that we dont have a clue Another new day begins to end, And well face tomorrow all over again, But thats ok, cause its all new to me and you

(Chorus)

(Tag)
And here we go again.

The following is from Nick Granato's website:

Nothing is new under the sun! You know, been there, done that? Someone, somewhere has already been though whatever it is youre in the middle of. It may not be an exact science, but inevitably it has already been done. There is a lot of truth in the old saying whatever goes around, comes around, because it always does. The cycle is endless and we are never in control; only a fool thinks he is. Its like a game of Monopolywe all shoot for Boardwalk, but we all keep going around the board and passing Go, and even though we may be fortunate to get Boardwalk, we still have to go around the board and are subjected to the same things everyone else it. Even if you do get that prized property, it doesnt mean that youll win the game. So within the confines of our existence you can find a bit of comfort here knowing that God is watching, and with His sense of humor, Im sure He does a lot of smiling as most of us desperately try to find the cheese in the maze! (Thank you Stella!)
