IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR LIFE

IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR LIFE
ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD
THAT YOU'RE TRAVELING UPON

IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR LIFE
ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN
WHAT YOU FEAR IS MOVING BACK
MAY WELL BE MOVING ON

As I watched a run through of this new musical, these repeated words - a palette for the show as well as for my life (maybe all of our lives) - struck me with that strange feeling of happy sadness... hit me right in the solar plexus, an arrow to my heart (or perhaps more accurately, my gut). I love it when something I've read before or heard before suddenly seems new... and more meaningful.
