Deep connection


“One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.” - Bob Marley


How true are those words? 

I have always felt a deep connection to music. All kinds of music, old and new. And while you won't be seeing me on The Voice any time soon, when I sing, I feel good. I forget everything going on in my life, and I feel like I can be me

Music always soothes my soul. On a good day. On a bad day. In the morning. Late at night. Music is always there for me. 

I can not tell you how many times I have had a bad day, turned on the radio, and heard the perfect song. That song that I can totally connect with. That song that I try to sing along with, but end up mostly crying instead. That song I feel deep down inside me. That song that feels like it was written just for me.

And, while I know it's not true,  it feels, for that very minute, just that way. Like that artist wrote that song for me

And my song of the moment?

Thompson Square- If I Didn't Have You

It is amazing the calm that comes over me when I hear this song. The lyrics are so strong, the words so beautiful. Definitely one that I can relate to, and one that sounds like me.
