Songs

Sometimes when we're too happy, we assign ourselves to songs that we like. We keep listening to those songs, trying to paint a picture over a blank canvas. It is usually beautiful, mainly because we're so happy. The colors so bright, vibrant, it's blinding. 

You're just too happy. 

When things turn the other way, we get sad, very, very sad. Suddenly those songs that we've been listening to when we were happy, sound so strangely painful. The picture we painted, is no longer there. Disappears among the darkness of the heart. 

But what we don't know is that, we can always turn the radio off, seek comfort in reading, or find other stuff that could keep us distracted, at least for a moment. 

You don't have to completely forget the songs, because one day in the future when you listen to it, you'll smile. Trust me. Sadness is just temporary. Things get better and so do you. 

I just listened to my break up song 6 years ago. It made me smile. Thanks for the memories. :)
