What If It All Goes Right?

Driving to the golf course, doing my usual 'surf the radio dial' game. The cultural light-years span between the Urban Rap station and the Southern Gospel station bends the brain a bit...

So I switch over to one of the many country stations here, and pulling into the parking lot, I hear:

'What If It All Goes Right?'

(The link leads to a MySpace page, scroll down a bit, and the song is first on the list. I'm new to this stuff, too.)

It's a compelling question!

What if you chase your dream,
And it changes your whole life?

I've seen it happen, more than once. I live in a house full of people who work their tails off, and have seen them rewarded for their efforts. The stories are too long to detail, too painful at points, too unlikely-sounding at their happy endings.

I sat in the parking lot, and could not leave the car until I heard the whole song.

Haven't done that for years...

It was a shot in the arm, as I headed off to my hours on the practice tee.

It hummed in my head as I tried to create that little pile of balls 150 yards out.

On to the day's agenda...little tune humming in my head...
