Defying Gravity





Sometimes music can be helpful when you're feeling down.   I know people who like to listen to music to match their mood.  I've not been that type of person very often.  If I'm feeling sad, I want music to lift me up and help me feel less sad.  With chronic pain/endometriosis in my life, I have begun to feel more deeply the songs that are empowering or encouraging.  Having a song sung by Idina Menzel never hurts either.  So while I think you should listen to the song to get the full effect, here are some lyrics that stick in my head when I need motivation.  And I don't need motivation to do my physical therapy and get back on the field or the court, sometimes I just need motivation to continue thinking positively.  Or to know that life is okay.  Or to be reminded that I'm through accepting limits because someone says they're so...  And that you won't bring me down...
