A Song, A Memory
We all fall in love at different times and for different reasons. Sometimes we fall in love before we can fully comprehend what it means in our lives. Sometimes we are flat out in over our heads. The Fray captured that feeling perfectly, and their song Over My Head (Cable Car) is still one of my favorites.

I'm Still Standing
Some songs speak to your heart and become your own personal playlist of your life's journey. When I think back to childhood, one song stands out and, to this day, makes me cry. It's a song of hope and believing in the impossible, but, more than that, it brings back memories from long ago when I was a small child. The song 'Rainbow Connection' came out the year I was born and I remember hearing my parents sing it often. It brings memories of when things were simple. When my parents were together and happy, for the most part, and our family was whole.

The Song that Broke the Cycle: Addicted! (And Other Helpful Tunes)
In 9th Grade Junior High, after a six-year hiatus, Rush, the Canadian trio titans of the progressive rock world, went on tour promoting their newest album, Vapor Trails. My entire family, extended and all, rushed off to see the live show in Salt Lake City, Utah. All except for me. I claimed I didn’t care much for Rush and stayed home to watch the younglings. What did I actually do? Turned on the electronic babysitter, slunk away to the computer, took to the internet, and watched porn, played video games, then watched some more porn. And more. When my family returned in band t-shirts with smiles and memories I realized I had missed out on something great. In truth, I loved Rush, especially their newest album.

How to Break Vashikaran on Someone
Vashikaran is an ancient Indian technique that involves the use of powerful spells and rituals to gain control over someone’s thoughts, emotions, and actions. It is believed to be a form of black magic that is used to manipulate and control others for personal gain. However, this practice is highly discouraged and considered unethical in many cultures. If you or someone you know is under the influence of Vashikaran, it can have a detrimental impact on their personal and professional lives. In this article, let’s explore the role of astrology in breaking Vashikaran on someone and what astrology says about this practice.

A Constant Companion
music has played a huge part in my life. My love of music started from a young age. From my parents love of music. I was influenced early on by classic 60's music and beyond, thanks to several CD's worth of music my dad made. Including one dedicated to mine and mum's favourite songs. With The Beatles being a signature staple of those early days and my love for them still holds to this day, as do my parents love of them and When I'm 64 seems very reminiscent to me now my parents are much older and reach that vital age. Puff The Magic Dragon, however is the song i most associate with this time though, as it was my favourite song from then and has such an innocence to it that seems very reminiscent of my childhood.

Twilight Soundtracked My Teen Angst
If there was a poster child for teen angst in the late 2000s and early 2010s, it would have been Twilight. If Harry Potter was the defining era of my childhood, Twilight was the defining era of my adolescence. From 2008 to 2012, the films had a hold on tweens and teens everywhere, whether they loved the saga or loved to hate it. And I was a part of the first group.

Life's Melodies
My grandmother insisted I start piano lessons when I was six. I studied for ten years but it wasn’t my thing. I’m a writer and a vocalist. My husband is a musician as well as my son. Music is a language on a subterranean level. I have a bunch of playlists. One for summer, one for the shower, one for encouragement, old school, stuff I love right now, other random compilations…I have a collection of vinyl that includes 45s and so many compact discs. I still have my iPod. It’s the one with the wheel and it no longer works but I loved it and can’t bear to let it go.

Broadway: Where My Life Happens
Thespian acting and musicals on the stage have always enamored me. Natural, living humans act out memorable roles to take us to faraway places while connecting the in-depth emotions of the characters through the surreal tendrils of music. I love all music, and my collection is eclectic. But in the fullness of life, musicals are where my heart resides by the invitation of writers, actors, composers, and theater venues. Broadway creations are timeless and will exist long after I am gone from this world. This is my limited Playlist of Broadway music interwoven into the critical moments of my life.

An Elebration: A Playlist for my Daughter
We found out I was pregnant with my daughter Eleanor on February 1, 2020, and just a few weeks later, the world shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic. My husband, Sean, was furloughed from his job at a commercial real estate firm (later to be laid off two months before my due date), and my job as a paralegal switched to a remote position. While working from home while dealing with severe first trimester illness was a blessing, our lives felt truly uncertain. Did I mention we were also trying to buy our first house? 2020 was a doozy of a year for our household--and it wouldn't calm down after my daughter was born.
