"Beat again"





It amazes me how fragile somethings are. I feel like I am kind of being let down by SVU a little bit. I have had a rough time with a certain class this semester. I am actually doing fine in the class but the way the teacher teaches and the way I prefer to learn doesn't match. As I found in high school, I can really learn however I need to learn. I am not specifically a visual, audio, tactile learner. I can learn any way. This week however I have really missed Idaho. I miss my opportunities had out there. Which at the time I thought were limited. I miss being able to be a part of an amazing orchestra. I miss being able to take lessons for a nurturing caring professor who wanted me to succeed. I miss my paid internship with a middle school choir program. I miss living in a "city". I never ever thought I was going to call Pocatello a decent sized "city" but yes comparatively it is! So I have been angry, upset, depressed really almost any negatively associated word could work. Then this song started playing tonight as I did my homework. It spoke to me. While I still have problems with this class, while I am still trying to find a viola teacher out here, it calmed me. I really like the chorus:

"Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
You’ll live to love another day
Yesterday’s a closing door
And you don’t live there anymore
So say goodbye to where you’ve been
And tell your heart to beat again"
