It’s Tuesday and boy do we need music now more than ever. Instead of drowning out the noise, we need to cut through it because the noise can over take us or even overwhelm up. Even though I have a mindfulness and meditation practice, I find myself challenged to remain calm and at peace at…

Tune Tuesday #56 – Holding Out for a Hero
The song speaks to the hero that we need in this moment.
Tune Tuesday #51 – By the Way, I Forgive You
“By the Way, I Forgive You” this line, from the song Every Time I Hear That Song by Brandi Carlile, echoed in my mind immediately after I first heard the song. There is something about her voice, coupled with the melody and the lyrics that sounds so familiar. In fact, when I first heard the song, I…
Tune Tuesday #45 – Fix My Eyes On You
Today’s tune is a song that is newer to me. It was by chance that I heard it on Spotify. I still don’t know how the song came through my playlist, but it grabbed me was the catchy beat. Since, the song has captivated me was the lyrics. This song is a Christian song, and…
Tune Tuesday #44 – Live for Today

In college, I remember reading academic articles about the wedding industry…

Tune #40 – Oh!
“Nothing in my life has changed this year with the exception of [one thing].” My friend told me as we caught up last week. Even though I started the conversation, I deliberately did not share any or all my good news. I did not tell her I was the happiest I have ever been, that…
Tune #39 – Hope Will Lead Us On
“[This song] made me think of you and your journey,” brother Teddy texted me one afternoon in February. He sent a link to the song, “Hope Will Lead Us On,” by the Barlow Girl. When I received that text that day, the timing was perfect. I never visited nor did I have a desire to visit Las Vegas prior…
Tune #38 – I Can See Clearer
Through awareness and mindfulness, clarity is possible.
