We all go through phases in life you lose hope, everything feels senseless or you think ‘Why even bother?’. Sometimes it’s just a day of going through these kinds of emotions, sometimes it can take you longer to pick yourself up again. I think we all can relate to that, hence the choice of Soul Music today…
Don't give up
Especially with all the craziness going around our world, it is increasingly harder to stay patient and seek to understand each other’s differences. It might seem easier to just give up. The song I’ve chosen today, hopefully will lift your spirit a bit when you feel a sense of fatality is coming over you.
Listen to, or read, the lyrics. Like Whitney so beautifully sang: “I know you’re hurting but don’t let the bad things get to you.” Take it step by step, day by day. Losing hope does not always mean you’re mentally ill, so don’t give up!

Step By Step - Whitney Houston
Lyrics
Well there’s a bridge and there’s a river that I still must cross
As I’m going on my journey
Oh, I might be lost
And there’s a road I have to follow, a place I have to go
Well no-one told me just how to get there
But when I get there I’ll know
‘Cause I’m taking it
Step by step, bit by bit,
Stone by stone (yeah), brick by brick (oh, yeah)
Step by step, day by day, mile by mile (ooh, ooh, ooh)
And this old road is rough and ruined
So many dangers along the way
So many burdens might fall upon me
So many troubles that I have to face
Oh, but I won’t let my spirit fail me
Oh, I won’t let my spirit go
Until I get to my destination
I’m gonna take it slowly ’cause I’m making it mine
Step by step, bit by bit,
Stone by stone (yeah), brick by brick (oh, yeah)
Step by step, day by day, mile by mile (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Say it, baby, don’t give up
You got to hold on to what you got,
Oh, baby, don’t give up,
You got to keep on moving on don’t stop (yeah yeah).
I know you’re hurting, and I know you’re blue,
I know you’re hurting but don’t let the bad things get to you.
Step by step, bit by bit,
Stone by stone (yeah), brick by brick (oh, yeah)
Step by step, day by day, mile by mile (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I’m taking it step by step), bit by bit,
Stone by stone (yeah, stone by stone), brick by brick
C’mon baby,
Step by step keep on moving, day by day (day by day-ee),
Mile by mile by mile by mile, go your own way,
C’mon baby got to keep moving, bit by bit (bit by bit, bit by bit)

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.
