5 songs I’ll listen to for the rest of my life


1.    The Climb
a.    This song means so much to me!  I have had to work hard to get where I am today.  I have had people tell me I can’t, but I have proven them wrong.  The speaker at my high school graduation talked about how sometimes in life you will get knocked down in life, but you have to just get back up.  Each time in college when a test didn’t go well or I had a struggle I thought about this.  I think this song has this message.  This song also talks about how you have to enjoy the journey while getting to your destination.
2.    The Best Day
a.    This song describes my mom and my relationship to a tee.  She is my rock and I do not know where I would be without her.  Sometimes when I get stressed out I put on this song and it calms me down thinking about my mom. 
3.    At the Beginning
a.    I love this song.  It talks about transitions in life and I am in that period in my life where there are a lot of transitions.  You never know who you will meet and who will have a big impact on your life.
4.    Same Love
a.    This song talks about something that I am passionate about.  I believe one day my children will ask about what it was like not to have gay marriage legal.
5.    Let It Go

a.      This song reminds me to not care what people say and to be true to myself.  People my age are constantly criticizing each other.  This song is a true reminder to not listen to them.  I had a wonderful friend my freshman year of college that taught me this and this song always reminds me of her.
