Jam Sessions

          Have you ever been doing some small organizational task at work or cleaning your house and suddenly your singing a song under your breath? Have you ever thought, "When did I hear that song last?"  Think very carefully about the music you listen to. The lyrics will stick in your head. Your thoughts effect your attitude and your attitude determines who you are at the core. So filter everything that goes into that head of yours!  Stay away from pityparty and vindictive songs. Make sure you listen to upbeat and positive songs.
          Have you ever been at your house and had a jam session? A jam session is where you run around in pajamas and  socked feet dancing and sliding on a wood floor to your favorite music...It can make you feel powerful and confident. You might even sing along and imagine yourself as some famous singer. The positive songs can lift a bad mood and give you courage. They can jazz you up enough to take action you wouldn't otherwise.
          Songs can take you back to memories long forgotten. They can bring emotions to the surface and express things you couldn't figure out how to put into words. Many times when I listen to a good song I am inspired to write. The song helps me feel the emotion and paint a picture of what I see in my mind. Sometimes songs make you fall in love. Sometimes they teach you what is important in life. Sometimes they just make you laugh...

But I also wanted to ask you all to share some of your favorite uplifting and principal based songs. You know the ones that make you feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside. Or maybe the ones that get you off the couch and bouncing up and down!  Either way, what are you listening to when you turn the volume up?
