I woke in the night with a sense of unease and foreboding. It occurred to me that I hadn’t had that experience for quite a while.

And that thought was the very thing which brought me back to a sense of calm. Because those unnerving, unpleasant feelings used to be a regular part of my life. And they aren’t anymore. Which is good news.

Other good news: I used to spend all day (even all week) dreading playing at a gig. And that too is a thing of the past. I often even look forward to them now.

Positive changes can happen. Bad things can become good things.

We’re never as a stuck in a rut as we sometimes feel.
