Three songs that touched me this New Year. Will be adding songs to my playlist favorites that are truly inspiring and encouraging.

### Ready to Be Myself by David Dunn


To be someone that everybody loved
 So I became someone I’m not
 Who am I gonna be when nobody’s watching me?
 I want to be real
 What am I gonna do to live what I know is true?
 I let go
 And ohhh, I’ve been someone else
 I’m ready to be myself

### This Is Me by Keala Settle (from The Greatest Showman)


When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
 I’m gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
 I am brave, I am bruised
 I am who I’m meant to be, this is me
 Look out ’cause here I come
 And I’m marching on to the beat I drum
 I’m not scared to be seen
 I make no apologies, this is me

###  Hawk Nelson – Live Like You’re Loved 


Live like you’re loved, walk like you’re free
 Stand like you know, who He made you to be
 Live like you’re loved, like you believe
 His love is all, that you’ll ever need

So go ahead and live like you’re loved
 His love has made you more than enough

Sometimes, music is all you need to change your thoughts, change your day and ultimately change how you look at life. Find the music and songs that inspire and lift your spirits. There are songs that speak to your heart and touch your soul. Whenever I am down or feeling out of sorts. I browse my playlist for songs that will soothe my troubled self. My favorite songs have always worked their magic on my troubled spirit no matter how bad my day may have been.
