15 songs/ 2010

2010 has started far different than any other year in my life. Since the fifth of January my world has been torn apart.
During my mother's sickness i said to someone "food has no taste, sleep has no meaning and even music has no sound"
Since her passing, i have found most of that is still true. Hunger is something that comes daily from forgetting to eat, other days all i can do is eat. Sleep, when it comes is both cherished and scary, but it truly waking up that is the chore.

As for music - music has sound. In fact it is more beautiful than ever. Whether it provides a soundtrack to cry to (or a loud enough cover) or a safe haven from the world..songs have become deeper and more meaningful than ever.

So...since the beginning of 2010, my life has been changed. Everyone asks how i am... and truthfully I answer "I don't know" But what I do know is that i have had a need to write. But words escape me, where to start, where to end, what to say....all seems so small. So as i traveled through my itunes today i glanced at my recently played songs. They were undeniably the soundtrack of the past two months.

So I need to write, I dont know where to start, and these songs say so much - i present to you my top 15 songs since 2010 has begun, what they are, and what they mean to me.

ONE SONG A DAY
enjoy
