Yesterday, I was flipping through all the thousands and thousands of songs in my iTune library. I was really low, down in the dumps, feeling stupid about stuff I had done in the past and things done to me and then I made a discovery. I was regretting giving my love so willing in the past only to have it blow up in my face. I played one of the songs in my library and I felt so empowered. I was able to clear my head, let go of all my past wrong and feel really good about myself. The song was Over You, by Daughtry. The lyrics were amazing and expressed exactly how felt at the moment. The words I would love to be able to go back and say to all the people broke my heart. Words like: Cause the day I thought I’d never get through, I got over you! And when you slammed the front door shut A lot of others opened up, So did my eyes so I could see, That you never were the best for me. Well I never saw it coming, I should have started running, A long, time ago! I’m better off without you, More than you, more than you know
I heard these words and some thing clicked in my head. Let go of all the grudges I was holding, move past the wrongs that have done to me and do not let anyone have the power to bring you down. I have played this song a few dozen times now and when I start to slip down in my misery, I play it. I smile and say, that is exactly what I would want to say to all the people in my past that hurt me. No one deserves to have such power over one’s heart, soul or mind. Listen to this song and move on.
