Georgia on My Mind- Ray Charles


“I said Georgia,
Ooh Georgia, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind

Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you..”

Some days there is someone or something I just can’t get out of my head. I try to fight it… I try to move along and forget about it. Sometimes it would be much simpler, or easier if I was able to do that. I would be able to spend that time wondering, worrying or caring about something else…. But I have thought that maybe I should stop fighting it.

Maybe I should go with where my heart and head are telling me to go. Perhaps there is a reason I can’t get certain things out of my mind. Despite any amount of distractions or alternatives I may try… I always come back to the same things. Maybe that is where I belong. Maybe I should stop fighting myself, trying to do what I am “supposed to do” and do what my heart truly wants… go where I want to go. Maybe that is where peace is… in what my heart wants.
