Lead-or-follow – Tamara, really

As the song says

Do you see yourself as a leader?

"Where you go," says Carole King in
A paean to love, friendship, and yes
Loyalty, "I will follow." It's clear she's
Not volunteering to lead. She'll win
When she answers your call. It's the
Dance of life, backward in heels, step
Lively and carefully, keeping rhythm 
Holding onto your vision, you listen 
Wait to follow the leader, you're hep
It's the game of life, and you will go
Where it leads. Following your heart.
Let it lead to wherever it goes. Smart.
You know this dance. Go quick, go slow.

Cool it

You can feel the weight 
Of the air, its hot breath
On your elbow, on your
Knee. Its heavy pressure
Slows every step you take.
Even your mind objects
To a physical oppression
So early in your day. Act
As if you could shake it
Off. Take your walk back.
It's only air and you have
Your own atmosphere. It
Is where you thrive, live,
Love. The weight of the
Heat is nothing to the
Power in your heart, in
Your head. You, you're 
Cool. Like the proverbial
Ice cube, like a cucumber.

There is a song that says it all

Who do you spend the most time with?

I am alone and by 
Myself. Alone but
Never lonely. By
Myself alone. It's 
A solo mission I'm
On, alone and by
Myself alone. You,
You are important.
To me. I value you.
Alone, by myself.

Take the lead

Are you a leader or a follower?

I am thrilled to hear Carole King 
Sing "where you lead, I will follow"
Every time the verse gets me to
Tap my toes. I follow along. I join
Her song. I sing with the track, my
Apologies for that; it's your song,
Ms King, your voice, your vision.
Let me just follow where you lead.
