Music to Your Ears: OVER IT....
Getting "over it" isn't as easy as your friends will tell you- "Hey,
get over it". Sure, not a problem for them to say. They aren't the one that had
their heart ripped out and thrown under a bus - or feeling like they
were left in the middle of the dance floor at the prom. And, can they really identify with YOUR pain????
You've pined away for months, hoping that Mr. Right (that turned out
to be Mr. Wrong) would be coming back into your life- declaring his undying love
for you - and live happily ever after. One day, you get mad. You get
angry. You're infuriated. Looking at the calendar - you realize all the
days and nights that you've wasted the energy crying and emoting for a
person that has moved on without you.
Here is the most helpful and empowering method to release your anger and
resentment: Music. "Hunh?" (I know you're wondering). Yes, MUSIC,
folks! Lyrics can express the words, to a perfect melody, that you've thought about, but haven't been able to create.
Wait - I'm not suggesting that you listen to an entire collection of
Barbara Streisand singing about "The Way we Were" or those sad country
western songs that claim "I'll never get over you"... no, what I'm
urging you to do is go through the songs that empower you the most.
Avril Lang is brilliant at expressing how you should feel in her song "I can do better". (And this is seriously a GREAT song).
Go through a list on your musical download site, pull up songs with
great titles, take a listen, download them... then plug in those ear buds
on your ipod. Make time on a daily basis to go for a walk or listen to
what you've downloaded.
The most incredible shift starts to occur: you get over it! And, you
know that you're over it when you see him and that punch in the gut
doesn't happen. Your heart doesn't jump up into your throat, and the
best miracle of all: you feel NOTHING. No anger, no resentment, no joy,
no fear, no hope - just NOTHING. Now, THIS is a "Yippie moment" for you!
Make the time to get some music for your ears!
