Music heals me. You might say I am just a hopeless romantic. You might be right, perhaps I am. Music just has a way of soothing my soul. And there are certain ones that I could listen to over and over again and still have the same effect on me, just like the first time I heard them. Most often than not, it reminds me of something or someone, or it takes me to another place. I find solace and peace—something that, sometimes… only music can give.

There’s a song for every chapter of my life. Some carry the warmth of a summer afternoon, where the windows were open and laughter drifted in with the breeze. Some ache with the memory of moments I can never get back, yet I keep them close, as if replaying the melody somehow keeps the moment alive. And some songs… they speak for me when my own words fall short.

Music has this quiet magic—it meets you exactly where you are. On days when hope feels far away, it can gently reach in, dust it off, and hand it back to you. On days when joy spills over, it can make your heart dance in rhythm with the beat. It holds our memories, our tears, our triumphs, and our dreams in its invisible notes.

I’ve often wondered why certain songs stay with us long after the moment has passed. Maybe it’s because music doesn’t just speak to our ears—it speaks to our souls. It tells us that it’s okay to feel, to remember, to hope again. It reminds us that no matter how much changes in life, some things remain timeless.

So when you hear that song—the one that stirs something deep inside you—don’t rush past it. Let it wash over you. Let it remind you of who you were, who you are, and who you are becoming. Because sometimes, what’s in a song is not just melody or lyrics. Sometimes, what’s in a song… is the story of you.

And maybe, in the quiet..between verses, I find pieces of myself—softly humming, quietly mending. Each note is a thread, stitching the torn edges of my days. And when the last chord fades, it leaves behind something like sunlight… a reminder that even in the silence, the music never truly stops.

Until next time,
