Happy 2013! How has the New Year been treating you thus far? I’ve been nothing but busy, busy, busy, busy! School, Personal Life (or what’s left of it) you name it my wheels are spinning.

I’ve gotten heavily back into my fitness routine and one of the classes I am happy to see back in rotation is Sexy Flexy aka Yoga. The other night we were doing our usual yoga class when this song caught my attention and just ignited thoughts, feelings, memories, and even some tears from within me. Now I’m a music junkie so when something catches my ear I automatically hold strong to the lyrics in my head so I can Google them and discover this new treasure of a song that speaks to my soul.
The song is “Lost & Found” by Lianne La Havas:



Come upstairs and I’ll show you where all my
Where my demons hide from you
Just look at who I have become I am so ashamed
You were the one that made me feel the way I do
You broke me and taught me
to truly hate myself
unfold me and teach me how to be
like somebody else

and I felt strong enough
I was discovered by the love
I had been waiting for so long
You told me none of that was real
I cannot hide how low I feel
To know that you were never wrong

You broke me and taught me
to truly hate myself
Unfold me and teach me
How to be like somebody else

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh eey yeaah
You are lost and found
Falling out my babe
Broken down
Broken down

You broke me and taught me
to truly hate myself
Unfold me and teach me
How to be like somebody else
You broke me and taught me to
Truly hate myself
Unfold me and teach me
How to be like somebody else
 
This is truly a song I believe can make anyone cry because we all have been there – broken by another and rebuilding ourselves from the ground up - some of us are still there, some of us are looking for a way out, some of us have found it.

For me this song reminds me a past relationship which did break me, it also makes me think of my broken relationship that I have with one of my parents. The power of music is truly amazing…
