The Latest and Greatest.

I'll start this off with some abstract thoughts I have been having lately. Some thoughts brought on by the new songs, and some from the day to day lives we lead. These Taylor Swift songs have got me thinking, I mean don't they always? The first song off her record 'Red' called We are Never Ever Getting Back Together, which was the fun song off the album that was honestly a joke and the one thing we wish we would have said to the boy(s) who screwed us over repeatedly. I mean seriously, I wish I could have screamed this at a few boys. The song that was released last week was called Begin Again. So far this is my favorite for this album. Basically this song starts where the other ended. It's been eight months and she is trying to date again. She is scared and is still trying to forget her past with her ex. This is probably the story of my life. It is also very sweet in the way this relationship begins again on a Wednesday in a cafe. Basically my dream date. But my words don't do the song justice, so just sit back and listen.

Today the third single was released and it is the albums title song 'Red". This song describes the love she felt for this boy and then the heartbreak or losing him. This song has such beautiful, heartfelt, passionate lyrics. And describes the emotions we go through when we are falling for someone and having to get over them. What I love about this album, (that is coming out October 22nd! I'm just a tad excited) is the meaning behind all of it. It's about the color red. Which for Taylor describes all of the emotions we experience in relationships. But I like to take it a step further, red can describe the emotions we experience in all of our relationships. When we are angry, when we are loving and kind, I believe red can even describe the pain we experience.

And this album has got me thinking, have I been as loving to others as I could be? Have I been as caring as I think I am? So my goal for myself and for all of us consists of the simplest promise to ourselves. To remember in all social situations to show my red caring emotions to everyone. I am going to try and be that one positive person you wish would just shut up and come back down to reality. But truthfully we have no reason not to love everyone and all things around us. So let's be kind when we are tired, let's listen when we are busy, let's hang out when we have no time, and let's love with everything we have to give and love some more. Wishing you all the best, with love.
