Music is my Therapy

I'm bringing my monthly music posts back! Last year in my 20's 😭 Let's gooooo! Song: Dust & Ashes Artist: Josh Groban from, Pierre, Natasha & the Great Comet of 1812 Is this how I die? Ridiculed and laughed at Wearing clown shoes Is this how I die? Furious and reckless Sick with booze How did I live? I taste every wasted minute Every time I turned away From the things that might have healed me How long have I been sleeping? Is this how I die? Frightened like a child Lazy and numb Is this how I die? Pretending and preposterous And dumb How did I live? Was I kind enough and good enough? Did I love enough? Did I ever look up and see the moon and the stars and the sky? Oh, why have I been sleeping? They say we are asleep until we fall in love We are children of dust and ashes But when we fall in love we wake up And we are a god and angels weep But if I die here tonight I die in my sleep All of my life I spent searching the words of poets and saints and prophets and ...

Song: Opposites Attract Artist: Paula Abdul I loved my calendar last year so much, I decided to get another one for this year ! Today's "daily holiday" was "National Opposite Day." I didn't really know what to do to "celebrate" opposites so I decided to see if there were any songs about "opposites attract" and turns out there was! This is my first time giving it a listen so lets see how it is, shall we? Baby seems we never ever agree You like the movies And I like T.V. I take thing serious And you take 'em light I go to bed early And I party all night Our friends are sayin' We ain't gonna last Cuz I move slowly And baby I'm fast I like it quiet And I love to shout But when we get together it just all works out I take two steps forward I'll take two steps back We come together 'cuz opposites attract And you know It ain't fiction, just a natural fact We come together 'cuz opposites attract Who'd a tho...

Song: Fire & Rain Artist: James Taylor 2022 is getting off to a rough start. I just found out my grandma has cancer and doesn't have much time left. I'm in shock and denial and feel devastated and heartbroken! My grandma is a literal angel on earth and I thought she would live forever. I saw her only a couple of weeks ago and she looked so good and was doing so well. It's horrible timing because I was so excited about getting tickets to see Hanson later this year when they go on tour. I feel guilty for asking who would be interested in going with me after getting this news. I know my grandma is ready to go and wants her family to be happy. She would want me to be happy and do something fun like this. But it's devastating. I can't imagine my life without her in it. Without receiving her sweet cards in the mail on my birthday each year. Without her visits. Without her stories and wisdom and testimony. I'm heart-broken. I'm learning I don't deal with d...
