Anyone have some of those songs where when you put it on full blast you're just like..... "yeahhhhhhh, Lets DO this!!" or something to that effect. Thought it would be good to build up a little thread of those little inspirational one liners...
One I've been listening to tonight, Haim - Falling
"Never look back and never give up, and if it gets tough it's time to get rough"
That's what I am, rough on the tough. yeh. Ok someone take over and stop me talking!

The day it rained forever by Aurora. This has some great lyrics
"When I wake I feel the sun inside, I know I'll be alright, on the day it rained forever" "All around the walls are breaking down, nothing makes a sound, on the day it rained forever"

Mia, I bloody LOVE Haim. Really hoping for their album for Christmas!
I love the lyrics to Gabrielle Apline - Home.
I'm a phoenix in the water A fish that's learnt to fly And I've always been a daughter But feathers are meant for the sky So I'm wishing, wishing further For the excitement to arrive It's just I'd rather be causing the chaos Than laying at the sharp end of this knife
With every small disaster I'll let the waters still Take me away to some place real
'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone Is where you go when you're alone Is where you go to rest your bones It's not just where you lay your head It's not just where you make your bed As long as we're together, does it matter where we go? Home home home home
So when I'm ready to be bolder, And my cuts have healed with time Comfort will rest on my shoulder And I'll bury my future behind I'll always keep you with me You'll be always on my mind But there's a shining in the shadows I'll never know unless I try
With every small disaster I'll let the waters still Take me away to some place real
'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone Is where you go when you're alone Is where you go to rest your bones It's not just where you lay your head It's not just where you make your bed As long as we're together, does it matter where we go? Home home home home home home home
'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone Is where you go when you're alone Is where you go to rest your bones It's not just where you lay your head It's not just where you make your bed As long as we're together, does it matter where we go? Home, home, home, home.
Not quite sure why, but I love 'em.

Awww that's beautiful Kim! Especially "with every small disaster I'll let the waters still". Very mindfulness like! Another one I like, Bing Crosby -Busy Doing Nothing "We'd like to be unhappy but we never do have the time" I love the whole concept of that line. And it's how I feel about MiLO!! Start to get a little bit unhappy and then there's so many good things to be getting on with there just isn't the time to stay there!

Jamestownstory - barefoot and bruised Look into my eyes, I can see the damage I can feel the cold dark place you're in You don't have to hide cause I'll be right beside you through every tear run down your skin Maybe when your sky comes crashing down I can be your angel on the ground If you get tired and can't go on I will carry you along when the rocks below your feet wear out your shoes when you're barefoot and bruised I know you've been hurt, I know that you've been broken had to walk alone no hand to hold But those lonely days are gone cause I am right beside you down every long and darkened road Lovee this one

That's such a lovely lyrics Mia, I've never come across that song before.
Yeah it is a beautiful line, isn't it? And, random as it sounds, I find that if I sing it (I can't sing, but you get what I mean!) and I start to listen to what's being said in the song, then I feel more grounded. I think it's because she says how home is where the heart is, it doesn't have to be bricks and mortar with your name inscribed in it, and I find that grounding. Goodness knows why! x

Ah Kim check out the whole song, it's awesome. There's another line that says "I have to watch the river to make sure that it doesn't stop" it could have been written for mindfulness!
And yeh I totally get what you mean. So important to know what grounds you
