Thank you for joining Mondays Music Moves Me. In honor of the late Martin Luther King, Jr, I thought it would be nice to set this week’s theme by building our song picks around visions, dreams, and hopes for a better tomorrow!
Originally, when I began composing this post, I found an extensive playlist that works with songs of hope and inspiration. My vision for the new year pertaining to blogging is to make things less cumbersome and more easy going because this is important to me. Your friendships are an essential part of my life that I can’t imagine being without. However, I need to spend more time away from the computer to do other things for a fresher, more energized me.
For this year, I want to choose song lyrics when I can that speak to me in the moment. In today’s song feature, I underscored the portion of the lyrics that grabbed me.
I look around at a beautiful life
I’ve been the upper side of down, been the inside of out
But we breathe
We breathe
I want a breeze and an open mind
I wanna swim in the ocean, wanna take my time
For me
All me
My hope for 2024 is to live more in the present to exercise, sketch, cook, organize, or whatever I want to in the moment. My goal is to give myself permission to step away from things if it creates more stress than joy. I know there will be moments I can’t but when I can then that’s what I will do.
4M co-hostess are featured in my right side bar underneath the banner. The guidelines are simple. Every other week, a suggested (not mandatory) theme is given to build your song picks. YouTube and other music sites have options to create and embed playlists or individual songs into your post. On the off weeks, we dance to whatever music moves you (your choice)! To access the party, add your music post below, and visit others on the dance floor. Let the party begin!
We have themes booked through the end of March and although I declared 2024 the year of Whatever Music Moves You, I know some people prefer the structure and challenge a music prompt offers. Tell us what you what you’d like to hear on the dance floor. Stump our brains, make us insane, it’s all a fun game, so send your ideas via email!
Up next is a new edition of Thursday Art Date. Come on by if you’re hanging around the cyberblock. That’s it for now, have a boogietastic week! X💋X💋, Cathy
