Today I find myself in a mood. A certain mood that I love when I get in, it's neither bad nor extremely good, it's somewhere in between. When I get like this I typically keep to myself more than normal and I listen to music. I used to always turn to music when I needed to reflect, feel, just be. I would use lyrics to describe where I was, what I was feeling, relate, gain a sense of comfort knowing someone else captured my exact moment and put it into words better than I could.
When my husband and I first started dating we would stay up for HOURS drinking wine and listening to a million different songs, old and new, and telling stories as to why they were so important. Me more than him but it was a way of getting to know one another beyond what we had already discovered.
I feel a sense of peace, contentment, just being. I think so many things, LIFE, happen so fast all around when you get a moment to just literally 'be' you should cherish it. My mind and my body seem to hardly allow for that anymore...so today, I take advantage of my mood.
My background music for the day seems to indicate I'm getting into that holiday spirit, and all the love and warmth that comes with.

I love that song by Sara... it is so beautiful. I know what you mean about certain songs reflecting your moods. I do the same thing... sometimes I need a good sad song to reflect my feelings and other days I need something fast that I can get up and dance too!
I get in these moods too.
What a great song by Sara, thanks for sharing. Glad you feel contentment - I strive to feel this in my life, especially when I start a family. Maybe I will feel more content when I have kiddos, right now I feel rather restless but know it will pass.
ditto! ditto....music makes the world keep moving. AND love the SB song.
I love you for posting Winter Song. I needed it tonight.
Happy Thanksgiving, friend. Squeeze your baby and your husband and enjoy the next few days before Dom breaks out his Christmas sweater.
