Music is a huge impact in my life. Whether I listen to the song for the rhythm or the message the lyrics speak to me. A song I absolutely love is the version of the Rascal Flatts to the song titled "Bless the Broken Road" I feel like the song speaks to me because it is about waiting for that one individual in my life that I may not have right now; but I will eventually find him or he will find me.
My motto is "Everything happens for a reason" although I may not understand at times why things happen to me; I feel when the timing is appropriate I will know why it happened. The rhythm for this song in particular is soothing and I can listen to it when I'm feeling low or even when I am very happy because this song to me means hope.
My favorite verse of the song goes, "Every long lost dream led me to where you are/ Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars". These lyrics reflect my motto that even though I may be going through a rough time and those hopes that I may not have attained or wishing I could find someone to love me doesn't mean it's going to happen right now. It simply means that I must make those mistakes first in order to appreciate what God has in store for me or for what is meant to happen.
Music has a funny way of sneaking up on you and allowing you to understand the lyrics differently from perhaps your friends or family or a stranger. I think mood has a lot to do with how you interpret a song whether it is through the beat or the lyrics. How do you feel about Music? Let me know.
