This Mental Music Monday is inspired by The Grammys last night. I must admit I generally do not watch award shows but this year we decided to record it so it was a much more enjoyable experience (fast forwarding through the stuff I did not want to see – or the lengthy songs etc). I kept thinking about that blond beautiful country/top 40 singer that my kids adore so much known as Taylor Swift. I was thinking about how surreal the ride must have been for her – to take on writing every song on her album and then to sing with such passion is very refreshing.
The title of the Album of the Year from Taylor Swift is FEARLESS …interesting during this time of turmoil and struggle. Think for a moment what it means to be fearless.
Without fear – to be brave and unafraid, courageous, assured, heroic, daring, confident.
Don’t those words inspire you?
I think we could all use a bit more “fearless” in our life. The ability to face adversity with courage and strength. Sometimes the things we fear the most are those that will make us the strongest.
If there is a challenge that awaits you, something you are unsure about or something you have just plain been avoiding because you are scared take this time to accept fearless into your life. You are stronger than you think and you will prevail, especially if you don’t let fear get in the way.
There are so many songs on The Fearless Album that I love but the title track wins today~
Enjoy!

I think it is important to realize that we may not choose the shoes we wear, we do have to learn to “walk” in them and should try and make the best of them.
