For Your Information...

Something has recently been brought to my attention that I feel like I need to address. This is serious people, so PAY ATTENTION. Many of you have noticed that I have a playlist on my blog. If you take a closer look you will notice that it is labeled "Our Theme Songs" For the most part that is true. Music really speaks to me. It helps me heal, reminds me of lessons learned, hard times, good times, special moments or people, etc. It has the same effect on my children. MOST of the songs on this playlist are important to us. If you go through the playlist in order, it kind of follows the ups and downs of our life for the past several years. HOWEVER, not ALL of the songs describe our life exactly. For example the song "Abra Cadabra" is my friend Levi's and my song, though the actual thought to "reach out and grab ya..." would make either one of us shudder and dry heave. It is the MEMORY of the first time we heard it that makes it special, not the WORDS. Likewise the song "goodbye Earl" is special to my sister and I because it came out as she was going through her divorce. It made us giggle, but we DID NOT kill anyone! Her ex husband is still very much alive, I think, and if not it had NOTHING to do with either one of us! And the song that seems to be in question, "I'll pray for you" makes me think of my dad. He and I recently heard it on the radio and I thought it was pretty funny. I DO NOT wish for anybodies breaks to go out, flower pots to fall on heads, any his and hers tattoos to be discovered, or any of the other things that are said in that song. I am NOT crazy, disturbed, overly emotional, or bitter. In fact, I am less of all of those things concerning my divorce, than most of my friends and family. I HAVE seen a therapist and he says I'm good. I am handling the hard things in my life very well right now, and use up my "praying time" on worthwhile requests, rather than revenge. So, if you have been worried after listening to my playlist, I appreciate your concern, but I really am fine. If this continues to bother you, you are more than welcome to pause the playlist, or turn off the volume on your computer. Thank you, and have a nice day!

PS: This evidently is a real issue for a few people, but the "rant" I just had was meant to be read in a teasing tone, not an angry one, please don't send me anymore e-mails regarding my mental health based solely on this post:)
