Close your eyes and hold my hand, That is all my heart demands, Just a touch of who you are

Every month we bring to you a song or collection put together and chosen by one of our staff. This month I have chosen to share one of my many playlists that loops for days and weeks, blasting through my earbuds. I have listened to some of these songs more than I can count and can proudly admit that I have even gone as far as to memorize the lyrics.

Music is the perfect chosen soundtrack of our own lives that we continuously take for granted. It is a fundamental characteristic of our existence, and it is impossible to imagine such a world without it. I hope that it will continue to be such a large part of our lives. Most often, the music reflects the emotions we are unable to express in any other form. Lost in comfort of lyrics that make too much sense, we are enveloped in the world of music. Throughout my life, music has helped to shape my personality, share it, and helped me to cope with the growing changes that come with being a person in today’s society.

Life has always been a grand symphony, overflowing with a grandeur of emotions. Each orchestrated to play a different part of a composition and each with its own unique purpose.

Have a song that’s made an impact on your life? We’d love to hear back from you. Send your songs and stories our way through [email protected]
