When Sunny Gets Blue

When Sunny gets blue
Her eyes get gray and cloudy
Then the rain begins to fall
Pitter patter, pitter patter
Love is gone so what can matter
No sweet lovin' man comes to call

When Sunny gets blue
She breathes a sigh of sadness
Like the wind that stirs the trees
Wind that sets the leaves to swayin'
Like some violins are playin'
Weird and haunting melodies

People used to love to
Hear her laugh, see her smile
That's how she got her name
Since that sad affair
She's lost her smile
Changed her style
Somehow she's not the same

But mem'ries will fade
And pretty dreams will rise up
Where her other dreams fell through
Hurry, new love, hurry here
To kiss away each lonely tear
And hold her near when Sunny gets blue

Hurry, new love, hurry here
To kiss away each lonely tear
And hold her near when Sunny gets blue





Johnny Mathis, singing

I run until I hurt worse than I feel.

When I'm down for some reason, I hibernate - I eat less, I sleep more, I wait for it to pass because it will, it always does.

Sun is a luxury some don’t have access to.
There's always the sun.

“Bearish” attitude. I like that. Bears seem to know that like winter turning into spring, sadness will turn to happiness…with time.👍

My best friend, the therapist, reminds me from time to time that my temporary moods and issues are just temporary. And they all happen inside my head, nobody else knows about them. So I just wait for better times.

I think the point she is making is to replace one pain with another which is easier to handle.

Kinda like when a hockey player shots the puck at the opposing teams net and one of their teammates “deflects” it into the net.🤔👍

Not what I had in mind. Rather girls and boys who inflict pain on themselves to ease their anxiety.

You may want to read the link to. Not always smart to replace one pain with another.

Perhaps not, but it may be a survival strategy.

Sometimes the things that help us to survive are too easy to reach for, long after they have started to be the thing that threatens are survival.

Running is fun though. 😁
