Fall In Love Again

I have often encouraged you all to see aspects of life and art and performance with a childlike wonder. Well this week I am asking you to listen with ears that have lived, loved, lost and learned. 
Just recently my mother discovered a cd of mine in my childhood bedroom. She listened to it and urged me to do the same as she knew I would feel a huge connection with number of the songs. As I listened I felt a sense of familiarity with the music, yet it also seemed new to me. I played to this album over and over again as a child but it is only now that the sentiment of the songs really rings true for me. I realised the reason for this is because I have lived so many years since I last listened to this album. I do not simply imagine what loss might be like; I have experienced it. I do not have an untainted sense of hope; I have been deeply hurt. The melodies are so familiar yet the words only now make sense. 
As an innocent child I could never imagine what it would be like to one day sing songs about things that have actually happened to me. One song in particular has struck a very special chord with me. This song is so true to my own life's journey and there is a certain symmetry to the fact that I actually first fell in love with this song before I knew how much it would one day mean to me. 
This week I ask you to take out your old CDs or record or tapes and listen with new ears. Listen with a heart and mind that has lived through so much since you last heard this music. You might find yourself falling in love with a song all over again... ​
