Some Things Are Hard To Understand..But Music Helps (Especially Lucy Hale!)

So if you don't know already, my Nana passed away on July 4th and my Grandma passed away back in February. That's right I have lost both of my grandmothers in the same year. I no longer have any grandparents alive. I can't seem to wrap my mind around that. This has been a very hard year for me. I wasn't expecting to lose one let alone both my grandmothers in the same year but it happened both unexpectedly actually. It all just feels kind of surreal to me. It's like those things you thought would always be there and then poof just like that they are gone and it is just hard for me to grasp. 

So RIP Nana and Grandma. I will always miss you and love you. Like I have said before Grandma gave me a love of baking and Nana gave me the love of Country Music. We would sit on the couch and watch CMT music videos sometimes all day long back in the 90s of course. Shania Twain, Martina McBride, Leann Rimes, Tim McGraw, George Strait, Clint Black, Garth Brooks, Brooks and Dunn, just to name a few of the artists we would watch. It made me fall in love with this great genre of music. So, when both my Grandmothers passed away, I turned to music to help me through, more specifically I turned to Lucy Hale's music to get me through. Her beautiful voice and those powerful yet relatable lyrics she sings would comfort me in way I needed most. I would have Nervous Girls on repeat and still listen to it everyday more than once sometimes. "I'm beautifully strong and tragically confused" that lyric from Nervous Girls is my favorite song lyric of all time. It describes me to a T right now in my life. I love those lyrics so much, I made my own art with them: 

I

 It is supposed to be a waterfall with the lyrics in the middle if that wasn't apparent. It would probably be more apparent if I scanned it instead of just taking a pic of it. I plan on scanning it a little later. I hope ya'll like it though. I really hope Lucy likes it too. Anyway, that's what I do to help myself cope. I listen to music and write, draw, and write some more. 

I will always remember the good times I had with both my grandma and Nana and without Lucy's music, I would have fallen completely apart by now so thank you Lucy, from the bottom of my heart for helping me get through these tough times with your music. I love you more than you will ever know. Last bit of confession, when I first heard Lucy's song Road Between, I had tears streaming down my face, I related to it so much and it was so beautiful and inspiring that I couldn't help but cry. 

Anyway, cherish everyone you love you never know when it will be your last moment with them. 

~Peace and Love~
