Music and my life

2 posts in 2 days! Are you proud or what???

If you know me well, you know I am not musically inclined. Seriously, the music gene missed me by a mile. But, I find music completely inspires me. I love it. I can't get enough of it. I seem to find songs that define my life in it's present state. This has always been true, although in the past few months it seems to be even more prevelant. There are a few songs in past few months that have found me and grabbed onto to me. They put into words and lyrics all the emotions I am feeling in such a perfect way. So perfect that I thought I would share them with you. My lovely friends and family seem to ask more now than ever, "how are you?". I don't mind them asking...I appreciate it. But they can't seem to fathom that after all I have been through I can really be as happy on the inside as I appear to be on the outside. I have news for you all...I am happier than I have been in a long time. Seriously. I am not angry, I am not bitter, I have ZERO regrets. I am HAPPY! So there.

Now, onto my music I can't get enough of. I am sharing these because I think they are a small window into my head (not that anyone needs a small window into my head...the view might be scary).

1) Already Gone...Sugarland. This song tops the list. If you haven't heard it, go listen to it now and you'll completely see the correlation. http://www.elyrics.net/read/s/sugarland-lyrics/already-gone-lyrics.html

2)Dream Big...Ryan Shupe. I have never heard another song of his, but I love this one. I don't know where I got it, but it made it's way to my i-tunes collection. Here are the lyrics: http://www.cowboylyrics.com/lyrics/shupe-ryan/dream-big-15994.html

3) Stand...Rascal Flatts. Read the lyrics: http://www.metrolyrics.com/stand-lyrics-rascal-flatts.html

4) Cheater Cheater...Joey and Rory. This song is just fun. It makes me smile. I am not linking to the lyrics because you really have to hear the song, not just read the lyrics.

5) Irreplaceable...Beyonce. An oldie but goodie. So many lines in that song that are so true!

You guessed it. 4 of my top 5 songs are country. Did you expect anything less from me???

This was really a pointless post and if you got through, congratulations.

A post from you is never pointless. Glad to have you back here, and really glad to hear you are happy. I believe it :)
I think I have given up the blogging for a while. I guess I'd rather spend my computer time reading other people's stuff. So bring it on!
