The Perfect Song

Some days, the rainy weather can make you feel as dreary as the outdoors itself! Today was one of those days. Now don't get me wrong, it's totally ok to feel sad and if that's the feelings that arise, let them be. AND, it's what you then do with those emotions that become important.

When in a funk, it can be tough to motivate yourself and if you're anything like me, you then go round in a vicious circle of feeling bad because you're sad, but not being able to get yourself out of it no matter what. For me, that's when music kicks in!

Somehow the universe knows when we need the 'perfect' song and the radio or playlist picks the perfect lyrics that you need to hear. Today, mine was 'The River' by Josh Groban, and somehow the words were exactly what I needed to hear. Gotta love when that happens!!

And so it got me thinking. It's time to create a new playlist, one of songs to motivate and inspire me when I need a pick-me-up and I guess my DARE today is for you to do the same!!!

So go on, get out your records, Apple Music, or whatever way you listen to music, and create a list of songs that can be your 'battle cry' when you need it. May you need motivation, maybe you need inspiration, or maybe you need to be energized, but whatever mood you need, there's always a song for it!
