A Tale Of Two Tunes

b'You know how a chunk of a song sometimes keeps going around and around in your head. The smart guys in the white lab coats call that an ear worm. I really wish they had called it something else, because that\'s not a nice picture. I have two of them going on right now. One of them is a once upon a time, a long time ago song called, "Little Things Mean A Lot." The part of the song that\'s going around in my head goes "...always and ever...now and forever...little things mean a lot." \\n\\tUsually when a song gets stuck in your head like that, if you think about it, the lyric has something to do with what\'s going on in your life...and I\'m trying to figure out the connection here. I know why the other song is going around in my head. It\'s a song from a movie that\'s so old the copy I have is on videotape. It\'s a movie that had a big impact on life for my Lady Wonder Wench and me.\\n\\tI have a feeling that "Little Things Mean A lot" may be on my mind, because I\'m finally coming to understand there\'s not much I can do about the "big things" in life. What\'s the government doing...or not doing...What if climate change is coming to get us...why are a lot of innocent kids are going to bed hungry. It is a long way from perfect world. Perfection is kind of tricky. Lots of people forget who they really are by always trying to be perfect.'
