Compelled to Action

Have you ever heard a song that just completely changes your life? Music has the power to affect our emotions and truly make a difference in our lives. There are so many songs out there that are truly inspirational and lead people to act on how they feel. Many times it can happen at a benefit concert or at a religious event or in a wholesome movie.

Inspirational songs make you feel good and make you feel like there's hope in this dark world that seems to just be going downhill. It proves that there are still good things out there and that you can choose to make a difference.

There's two that come to my mind right now. One is a song about remembering 9/11. I just recently heard it and I really enjoyed it. This terrible event brought our country together and created a sense of nationalism as we mourned about the disaster. This song is called If I Had My Way and it really emphasizes the fact that life has the potential to be so great if people act in kindness and have faith and hope.

Another song I really enjoy is You Raise Me Up by Josh Groban. It has such a positive message and leads people to bring others up and to be selfless. I aspire to be this type of person that puts other people above themselves and sees the potential that other people have. Everyone likes to feel special and feel like they can do anything they put their mind to and that's something I want to be able to do...make people feel good.

Pay attention to the inspirational songs in your life and see what you can do to take action and truly make a difference.
