"I've
been cheated. Been
mistreated. When will
I be Loved?"
This
set of lyrics written
by Linda Rondstadt
years ago gave rise
to my understanding
of the transformative
power of listening to
song
lyrics.
|
I was in
college, studying the book
Beloved, by Toni Morrison. I
had a paper due in one day;' I
was completely stressed out;
and I had no clue what to
write about.
-
-
I took a
nap and woke to the lyrics of
Ms. Rondstadts song. It was
buzzing in my ears, and I had
the sudden feeling that I
should pay close attention. I
intuitively felt the lyrics
were important.
They
were.
-
Although
I do not recall the precise
details, the few lines from
that song gave me all the
insight I needed to write my
paper in a very short time.
-
-
The line
"When will I be loved?" was a
doorway into my understanding
of the book Beloved. I
realized that the central
character just wanted to be
loved, and that was all I
needed to know to access
enough creativity to write a
terrific paper. From that
moment on I never doubted the
pure potentiality of song
lyrics.
The
above is just one illustration
of the power of song lyrics.
Many more are possible. For
instance, always pay close
attention to any song lyrics
that run through your
head.
-
-
When
lyrics run though your head,
they stop being "out there."
For all practical purposes, if
you are singing the song
lyrics, then you might as well
have written them in the first
place. You are imbuing them
with meaning, and they are now
"in" you, so to
speak.
Tip!
Buy a quality instrument. I
learned to play on a cheap
guitar and believe me, it's
not easy learning on an
instrument that does not stay
in tune or is difficult to
chord.
So, how
so you benefit from this
knowledge? By understanding
that what you are singing
about is about you. You can
gain great self-awareness and
wisdom by looking carefully at
what you are singing.

Do not
assume that these are just
random song lyrics running
though you mind. They are not
random. You are choosing to
sing them and they have a
message.

The
message is usually about
something you wish you had or
about something you are
fearful of. The song you are
singing offers you clues as to
what your deepest values and
beliefs are.
-
-
These
deep attitudes are what you
need to uncover in order to
become more self-aware and
powerful. So next time song
lyrics run though your head or
come onto the radio at an odd
time, pay very close
attention. They just might
change your life or give you
an answer you
needed.

That's
how things stand right now.
Keep in mind that any subject
can change over time, so be
sure you keep up with the
latest news.
