My life:the music

My life: the music

      Has it ever happened to you? When you are in a specific state of mind or emotion, you hear a perfect song that fits your needs. It is as if the singer is giving words to your feelings and materializing them.

It hit me when through a rough patch I heard coincidentally a song by Taylor swift:” Knew you were trouble” (  Youtube link )

Haven’t we all done it before? Whether it’s a relationship or not, deep down you feel instinctively that this situation might have a negative outcome yet you go through with it.

I agree mostly, it’s applicable to relationships: you say why not, or let’s see where this is going and out of the blue you find yourself inseparable form that person. When at the beginning you were pretty sure it was trouble, the sad part is you get attached against your best judgment and try not to over think about the outcome till it happens.

A fight or problem will leave you vulnerable because you went in too deep after you promised yourself you won’t.

On another note, I have noticed that these coincidences are very frequent with me, in good and bad occasions.  However, the last time it happened to me it was almost an infinite loop: in the car and especially in the restaurant where I was having diner, I was bombarded with songs such as: Someone like you (Adele), Titanium (David Guetta), Trust you again (Muttonheads)… All that while trying to talk about the relationship and the outcome on my date.

Furthermore, we tend to find ourselves in the same situation at work: out of need or routine you stick to a job you may not really like since there a no other opportunities in the near future.  Why you may ask?

In both cases it is the fear of the unknown, when get accustomed to a certain pattern it becomes your comfort zone, you try to make it work and patch it up even if you know at one point something broken cannot really be fixed over and over.

     In the end, it will take courage for that leap, to try and escape because in the unknown may be a great opportunity. However, if you are still trying to make it last and solving every problem separately it could mean also that you know it is worth it, it is worth fighting once more for what you believe is a key component to your happiness.
