You seen the recent remake of the film “A star is born”?

I mostly really enjoyed it.

No idea what Bradley Cooper and his brother we saying most of the time though, which made it a harder watch.

I downloaded the songs ‘Shallow’ and ‘Maybe it’s time’ after watching it.

Or ‘Maybe it’s tim’ as it shows on the car display when bluetoothing it from my phone.

To go with the classic “Do you remember the first tim” which cause me and Oli such amusement when we figured out it was the “song about Tim” that Jamie kept requesting.

In it, Bradders sings “Maybe it’s time to let the old ways die”.

And maybe it is.

Maybe this time of enforced change is the best time we’ll ever get for letting those old ways die.

For leaving some of our old habits, that didn’t serve us so well, in the pre-lockdown days.

For coming out of lockdown with some new ways.

It doesn’t need to be hard work.

Dying usually isn’t.

It’s normally the end of effort to keep alive.

Letting the old ways die doesn’t need to be hard, if we choose it to not be.

We’re just letting things go.

Maybe it’s time to let the old ways die?

Much love,

Jon ‘Spinnin still’ Hall
