Day 1: Introduction

Lent is the season of “re” – recharge, recenter, refocus, realign. It’s also the season of filet-o-fish on Fridays.

I enjoy writing. I enjoy music.

A friend once told me music is magic. I’ve always been fascinated by the fact that a song can have a “That’s so Raven” effect bringing you back to a point in time. 

There are songs in my life that I have vivid memories associated with. That said, this lent season, for 40 days I will pick a song a day, write a memory I have with it, and share it with you all. 

There will be some good memories, some not so good ones, and everything in between. There will be music that will make your foot tap, and music that will make you want to call your mom to pick you up.

My goal is to not only say what I will do and be consistent on this journey, but bring to light the power music has in our everyday lives and the memories we carry alongside our walks of life.

Thank you for reading. And if you don’t read, that’s totally chill too. As I share my songs and stories, I’d love to hear yours too. I hope you enjoy 🙂
