Besides being thought provoking or a mood booster, musicians often also write about their own learned lessons in life. This weeks’ Soul Music choice is a good reminder that some things just don’t work…
Weaknesses
As a skilled helper and also through personal experience I learned that embracing your positives AND limitations is important. To be able to be yourself, you have to show yourself your weaknesses, give your (painful) memories a place. Either delete them or put them in a little spot in your heart. Cry if you need to, going through this process 😉
Stay Connected and let me know: do you find it hard to deal with memories?
Won't Cry - Krezip
Lyrics
You hoped that if you’d forget your memories
That they’d forget you too
You’d put a bandage on your aching spot
And that will make you feel good
I think someone should have told you that
This ain’t the way it works
And that you have to work it out some day
You will, yeah
It takes you further everytime
It will make you sweat like hell
You just can’t keep gnashing your teeth forever
Won’t cry, why wouldn’t you
No, won’t let them get to you
Won’t cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain’t, no no
This ain’t, no
It ain’t the way it works
They’re wrong, they’re wrong, so wrong
Well you’ve done enough to prove us all
Won’t let them get you down
But now I think the moment’s here
To show yourself your weaknesses
I see you figured out by now
This ain’t the way that things go
And the time has come to work it out
You will, yeah
It takes you further everytime
It will make you sweat like hell
You just can’t keep gnashing your teeth forever
Won’t cry, why wouldn’t you
No, won’t let them get to you
Won’t cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain’t, no no
This ain’t, no
It ain’t the way it works
They’re wrong, they’re wrong, so wrong (no, no, no, no)
You won’t cry, won’t cry, I know
You won’t cry, won’t cry, won’t let them get to you
Won’t cry, won’t cry, ooh no
You won’t cry, yeah
You won’t cry, why wouldn’t you
No, won’t let them get to you
Won’t cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain’t, no no
This ain’t, no
This ain’t the way it works
They’re wrong, they’re wrong, so wrong (no, no, no, no)
That they’d forget you too
You’d put a bandage on your aching spot
And that will make you feel good
I think someone should have told you that
This ain’t the way it works
And that you have to work it out some day
You will, yeah
It takes you further everytime
It will make you sweat like hell
You just can’t keep gnashing your teeth forever
Won’t cry, why wouldn’t you
No, won’t let them get to you
Won’t cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain’t, no no
This ain’t, no
It ain’t the way it works
They’re wrong, they’re wrong, so wrong
Well you’ve done enough to prove us all
Won’t let them get you down
But now I think the moment’s here
To show yourself your weaknesses
I see you figured out by now
This ain’t the way that things go
And the time has come to work it out
You will, yeah
It takes you further everytime
It will make you sweat like hell
You just can’t keep gnashing your teeth forever
Won’t cry, why wouldn’t you
No, won’t let them get to you
Won’t cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain’t, no no
This ain’t, no
It ain’t the way it works
They’re wrong, they’re wrong, so wrong (no, no, no, no)
You won’t cry, won’t cry, I know
You won’t cry, won’t cry, won’t let them get to you
Won’t cry, won’t cry, ooh no
You won’t cry, yeah
You won’t cry, why wouldn’t you
No, won’t let them get to you
Won’t cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain’t, no no
This ain’t, no
This ain’t the way it works
They’re wrong, they’re wrong, so wrong (no, no, no, no)

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.
