George Patton quote – Curious as a Cathy

Awww Mondays hosted by Sandee from Comedy Plus.

Welcome to the Sunday edition of Monday’s Music Moves Me! This week’s prompt is whatever music moves you. As I prepared my song list, it dawned on me today is the anniversary of one of the worse days in America history. It’s a day we should never forget, but I think we need to fill our hearts, our lives, our world with hope. I felt inspired to picks songs that make you look to the brighter side with my 10-song playlist.

Songs of Inspiration playlist: 1. Titanium ~David Guetta ft. Sia 2. Livin’ On A Prayer ~Bon Jovi 3. Don’t Stop Believin’ ~Journey 4. Dream On ~Aerosmith 5. Ain’t No Mountain High Enough ~Marvin Gaye 6. What A Feeling ~Irene Cara 7. Here Comes The Sun ~The Beatles 8. Lovely Day ~Bill Withers 9. Roar ~Katy Perry 10. What A Wonderful World ~Louis Armstrong

To see the brighter side of life can be as simple as waking to a new day. The rising sun fills the senses almost like a magical spell casting inner peace. Sharing life with another person at your side to hurdle stormy weather together helps to throw aside the dark clouds. Other times, getting to the brighter side might come from finally being fed up with beating oneself up or having others to do it before realizing enough is enough while championing one’s way toward his/her goals. Someone told me long ago, if you want others to believe in you that you have to believe in yourself first. See the beauty in you, see the beauty in our world, never stop believin’, dream on til your dreams come true!

I clipped portions of each song that inspires to help push the gloom away so the beauty of the day can shine forth.

You shoot me down, but I won’t fall I am titanium! Titanium ~David Guetta ft. Sia

We’ve gotta hold on to what we’ve got
It doesn’t make a difference if we make it or not
We’ve got each other and that’s a lot
For love we’ll give it a shot

Livin’ On A Prayer ~Bon Jovi

Don’t stop believin’
Hold on to that feelin’

~Journey

Dream on, dream on, dream on
Dream until your dream come true

~Aerosmith

Ain’t no mountain high enough
Ain’t no valley low enough
Ain’t no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

~Marvin Gaye

Take your passion
And make it happen
Pictures come alive

~Irene Cara

Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo, here comes the sun
And I say it’s all right

~The Beatles

Then I look at you
And the world’s alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it’s gonna be
A lovely day
… lovely day, lovely day, lovely day

~Bill Withers

I got the eye of the tiger
A fighter
Dancing through the fire
‘Cause I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
‘Cause I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me roar

~Katy Perry

I see skies of blue
And clouds of white
The bright blessed day
The dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

~Louis Armstrong
