Challenge
CURATED BY ALEX WATTS
“HUMAN”
The Killers
We all question our places in the world. Asking questions, both big
and small, is taking a step toward overcoming a challenge.
“THERE ARE WORSE THINGS I COULD DO”
Stockard Channing
We all compare ourselves to others whom we deem more fortunate
or lucky. Sooner or later, we realize it’s a waste of energy, but until
then, overcoming challenges with musical soundtracks makes any
hardship a little better.
“RAINDROPS KEEP FALLIN’ ON MY HEAD”
B.J. Thomas
A close listen to the lyrics shows Thomas is trying to encourage
listeners to look on the bright side of any situation.
“LET IT BE”
The Beatles
The simple command “let it be,” puts everything in perspective.
One way to overcome challenges is to accept the good and bad in
life for what it is.
“HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN/GET HAPPY”
Barbra Streisand and Judy Garland
Whether we focus on the music or the lyrics, this song can speak
to those of us overcoming or in the midst of sad times. Both songs
focus on happy times coming back after rough periods.
