Thought for the dayTune Of The Week Tuesday

It’s the second day of Mental Health Awareness Week. For me music has always been integral in lifting my mood. As this year’s theme is kindness, I’ve picked One Love by U2 to listen to this morning. It’s a song about forgiveness, caring and love. The kindness message in this song reminds us that we […]

Eminem – Lose Yourself Music soothes the soul – Turn on the tunes when you’re cooking, doing house work, doing work out’s, in the car, or studying. This track fills me with inspiration and motivation. It’s about seizing the moment and not giving up. You may feel like you’re not winning, but failure is not […]

Mister Mister – Take These Broken Wings Whichever way you hear the lyrics in this track, it is an incredibly powerful song about a man’s battle with strength and coming to terms with loss. He is telling her that he’s broken, but with her love, she can put him back together and they can ride […]

What is this song about? ‘I’m coming out’ was released in 1980 after Diana Ross had a career with Motown’s Barry Gordy.  This song’s lyrics are full of positive change and revelation.  Originally, this was about alcoholism, but is now a huge LGBT anthem. Being open in how you identify yourself publicly is certainly a […]

What is this song about? This is a powerful song about how you get back up when you hit rock bottom. However, it also makes it clear that you are likely to get knocked back down again, but each time, you will rise stronger.  It’s a climb to the top, but it’s not a race.  […]

What is this song about? This song is about positive mental health. This is about getting help and rising above any issues that anyone is dealing with. I have written many blogs about mental health and that it is OK to talk. Don’t suffer in silence. Talk to someone, whether it is a friend, family […]
