I have a personal blog that I keep of my day and how I feel. In the comments section, I put down songs that carry me through that blog post or what happened...etc.
Songs have a particular way to sway you, make you FEEL. So far this semester, I have been fortunate to connect to the songs we have in class emotionally, being able to take me through hard times. The imagery of the songs take me to a windswept place at sunset. Some kind of calm, away from the bustle of Berkeley and school.
This week-ish has been strange and bizarre but I find myself singing Freight Train to remind me of what is good and pure : )
A song written by a little girl about the some movement in life towards inevitable death. profound!
