Broken

Music speaks to me. It is a part of me. I don't know how to explain it. It's hard to. Different things speak to different people. Music has always spoken to me. God has used it to speak to me. He's used lyrics to let me know I'm not alone. He's given me lyrics to express my heart. He's helped me create music, and he's given me music. Music that makes me smile. Music that I cry with. Music that I have shared with my children.

If I'm happy, I want to listen to music. Sad? Music. Angry? Music. Tired? Music. Music even helps a migraine; often when nothing else will.

I have always been this way.

You'll hear me singing in the shower. In the car. In the grocery store. To my kids. With my kids.

It's in my heart.

Throughout this process, many songs have helped me or spoken to me. I'd like to share some of those songs with you.

"Broken" by Lifehouse is one of my favorites. Often, the words touch me and I don't think much of the video. With this song, however, the video spoke to me as much as the music.

If you don't get what I "got" in the video, I'd be happy to share it with you. I have a feeling, though, that many of you who listen and watch until the end will understand why I like the song and the video.

The words?  Wow. Just listen.

As if the title didn't say enough.
