Ever have one of those days (or maybe many of days) where you feel that you're so alone? You might have lots of friends, a loving family, and a good life, and maybe, if you're lucky, everything is actually going the way you want it to. But still, you feel like you're alone, in spite of being surrounded by people who care about you. Some days all you want is to know that someone us there for you, through all the good, the bad and the ugly. I feel this way often; I am always surrounded by people who care for me and love me, but I still feel alone and want to know that there's that one person who will always be there for me, someone I can always rely on. Someone I can go to when the world is crashing around me, when the darkness is closing in on me and the demons and monsters are circling me, ready to strike. I think, deep down, everyone wants that; everyone needs to have a person like that.
On Saturday, the music department at Kingwood college put on it's "A Stellar Evening", a concert in which the music faculty performs for the public to raise money for the music scholarships. Eric Skiles, the head of the drama department, sang a song called "Someone to Fall Back On" from Jason Robert Brown's musical "Wearing Someone Else's Clothes", and I will be totally honest, folks, I almost started crying. Now, I am not the type of person who gets emotionally moved by a song too often, but this one nearly had me in tears. It was such a beautiful song, and I knew that when I got home that night I had to find it on youtube and post it on Facebook for everyone to enjoy. I wish that someday, the man who loves me, whoever he is, would sing this song for me, but then again, if a guy who loved me sang ANY song for me, I would marry him on the spot. Anyway, here's the song :-) ejoy!
Oh, and if you're wondering why I always have a song with all my posts, I have another confession to make: I believe in using songs to say things.
