When Your Life Was Low
Friends once saved my life. Friendship means everything to me. I have friends that I would die for. My friends are few and far between. This is how it should be. Genuine people are few and far between. Besides, if I am there for my friends like I should be, my time and energy can only accomodate a few. Lalah Hathaway’s When Your Life Was Low (1999) is a beautiful song about the importance of loyalty in friendship. Loyalty and friendship go hand in hand.

How Sweet It Is
Forgiving can be much sweeter than revenge and does not leave a bitter aftertaste.

Another’s personal carbon may come from the hair but the way to it is through the heart.

Human
When I look back, I see that a lot of my past mistakes are following me. After everything I have been through, it turns out that the hardest person for me to forgive is myself. I have to remind myself that I am only human. This lets me find the mercy that keeps slipping from my grasp. The Human League’s Human (1986) relates a message that I keep needing to hear. I am sure that I am not the only one who needs to hear it.

Loooooooooove
Males and females are inclined to view some things differently. I see this more and more as I get older. Keyshia Cole’s Love (2005) appears to hold something special for females. I have heard young women and girls of just about all ages perform very powerful renditions of this song. Keyshia Cole puts her soul into this work. Listen to it. If you happen to be a female, see if you feel compelled to enlist the aid of your soul while singing along or doing a solo performance. You may end up surprising yourself.

It’s All Up To You
Your diamond should be just a symbol of love and not a symbol of guilt.

Always
Always is just as long as forever. Both words can be used interchangeably. Diamonds are for always. Say it a couple of times and its oddness goes away. True love is for always. Say it once and you’ll realize that there is no oddness to banish. There is also no oddness to banish from Always (1987) by Atlantic Starr. It has always been one of my favorite songs. I have a hunch that it always will be. Hear why for yourself.
