It’s my life, a song choice you might not expect on a website about Connection. Yes, I do aim to inspire you to Connect. To Life, to Others. However, also to Yourself! Core Connection is so important, hence this week’s Soul Music choice…

Nowadays, you can view, listen to and read lots of people giving advice about how to best live your life. I also publish posts and pages with tips and tools how to choose your lifestyle or about the importance of self-reflection. More and more, I try to NOT give advice: have you find your answers to your questions yourself. Because we are all unique and what good is for me, isn’t automatically good for you.
“You better stand tall when they’re calling you out
Don’t bend, don’t break, baby, don’t back down”
Connection with others, with nature, with our world is absolutely important. We need to stay aware of the fact that we need each other to thrive. Ultimately, however, you have to be able to say: It’s my life. Without losing respect for your neighbors 😉
It's my life - Bon Jovi
Lyrics
This ain’t a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain’t gonna be just a face in the crowd
You’re gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud
It’s my life
It’s now or never
I ain’t gonna live forever
I just want to live while I’m alive
(It’s my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I’m alive
It’s my life
This is for the ones who stood their ground
It’s for Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow’s getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain’t enough
You’ve got to make your own breaks
It’s my life
And it’s now or never
I ain’t gonna live forever
I just want to live while I’m alive
(It’s my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I’m alive
It’s my life
You better stand tall when they’re calling you out
Don’t bend, don’t break, baby, don’t back down
It’s my life
And it’s now or never
I ain’t gonna live forever
I just want to live while I’m alive
(It’s my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I’m alive
(It’s my life)

Soul Connection
There are many ways to Boost Your Soul and music is a fantastic one. There are a variety of genres you can listen to, even Soul Music is a genre in itself. To me, music is also a way to Connect with your Soul. A tool to help you go through emotions and acknowledge them. Depending on your mood, there will be always a piece of art that goes along with it. What I love most about music is how it can Connect people.

I agree music does a lot, unfortunately the singer pronounce often very badly ore the music is too laud. The reason why I seldom listen to songs. I keep up with intrumental music witch deepends my health, my emotionsand give me the possibility to stay with myself. In my live I have always lived my own life not influenced by trends without loosing the respect to others. We all life together, need each other to build a communicty whre we all can be ourself without judgement. it is very important special in the New time we life in, where people struggle with rules, respect and judgement.
Hence the lyrics added 😉 Thank you for adding your perspectives, dear Joyce! XxX
