Soul Songs

Off to Sleep - Cœur De PirateFly on you Golden Girl and take on your fearsI'll be with you in your dreams, the world is darker than it seems.

Little Lion Man - Mumford & Sons
Your grace is wasted in your face, your boldness stands alone among the wreck

Hurricane - Lisa Loeb
I'm a lightheaded wonder, don't you see my mind slow down?

To Build a Home - The Cinematic Orchestra

I climbed the tree to see the world. When the gusts came around to blow me down I held on as tightly as you held on to me.

Thistle and Weeds - Mumford & Sons
Plant your hope with good seeds, don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds.
Rain down, rain down on me.
Look over your hills and be still, the sky above us shoots to kill

Daffodil Lament - The Cranberries

All night long laid on my pillow. I can't sleep here.

The Haze - Echos

I only wanted to see what lies within your eyes, open your eyes.

Home - Ellie Goulding

On my own, no poison in my bones. On my own, this is where I build my home.

Magnolia - The Hush Sound

You're weathered and worn, your petals soft and torn.

Sit back and breathe deep.

An insightful person told me personally after only meeting me once. "Your soul needs to fly, it needs to thrive and play."

This year I've done things I never thought I'd be able to do. I've achieved things I never thought I'd even have the opportunity to achieve. I've met some amazing people and have learnt so much about myself.

I've moved back into my own flat.

I've erased all that unnecessary poison in my life.

I've learnt to be fine with who I am because I'm pretty amazing.

I'm a young heart. I know I can be far too childish, and I know it would make a lot of the people in my life so much more comfortable if I were to grow up just a little bit but frankly...I don't need to.

I'm older now then I've ever been, I can support myself, I can look after myself. I'm happy in my skin. I'm happy in myself. 2014 hasn't been a particularly spectacular year, but it's been a rewarding one.
