Songs trigger so many memories for me. It's like that one melody strengthens that synapse even more than it needs to be. It's funny how songs can do that to you. I remember putting on "I don't wanna miss a thing," by Aerosmith, and my friend saying: "ugh don't listen to that song. It was our song." (meaning her and her ex).
I guess we all have songs that we can listen to forever, the songs that somehow never get old because they represented a moment in time you want to remember forever, but then you grow up and realize that "forever" has an expiration date, and all you have are often the songs that accompanied those moments.
You also grow up and realize that there are always going to be new songs to fall in love with, and that life has an abundance of blessings to offer. So, in everything you do, you learn to embrace challenges, to go through the open doors, and live as if you've never been wronged. You live being a little less than content because you can't live without a drive. And lastly, you go on with life and don't look back.
