We are the Same

I know it's been a long time since the accident happened, but that doesn't take away its significance and how it makes me feel. I try to hide what I'm feeling and put on the happy face, hoping things will get better if I do. But so far, they haven't. I still miss my best friend and our long walks in the park together. I still miss seeing his smiling face when he scored a hockey goal or when I held his hand. I crave to hear his laugh, to feel his hugs and to actually hold a conversation with him. I am such a perfectionist and not being able to fix this is killing me. There is absolutely nothing I can do.

Music, to me, brings solace. Solace that I don't think anything else can. It allows me to expierience its message, and have something to identify with. Music understands me, and I understand it as well. It's something about putting the Music and Lyrics together that makes it magical, makes it apart from the rest. It calms me, and lets me relax. Because of this love for music, I propose this:

Every day I will post on this blog a song that describes what I am feeling, or summarizes my day. I hope you guys enjoy the songs as much as I do, and can find music as something that relates to you as well. There will be a variety of different tunes, each with a specific meaning and reflection. I hope this brings more consistency to my posts, and allows you to connect with music as much as I do.

"Music does bring people together. It allows us to experience the same emotions. People everywhere are the same in heart and spirit. No matter what language we speak, what color we are, the form of our politics or the expression of our love and our faith, music proves: We are the same.” John Denver

  1. I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine but I can easily feel your pain and grief through the words you've written.

    Thank you so much for your kind words on my blog!
