"Restless Soul"

Okay, the video is a little odd. But this is the best introspective song that I know of. It might as well be my theme song when I get into certain moods. I know what kind of a person I'm supposed to be, what kind of a person I want to be. But then there's the person that I am, which is something quite different. I get so angry with myself for falling into the same patterns over and over, for making the same mistakes. It's good to stop and look at those mistakes, though, so that I can find ways to improve, to get a little closer to that person I imagine myself becoming.

And I am looking forward quite a bit these days as I begin the last week of my second-to-last semester as a college student. I can't help but feel a little nostalgic as I also look back at all the days I have spent in school. It seems crazy that I will soon leave school behind and start a new phase of life. In many ways, it feels more intense to me even than graduating high school because I have a clearer focus now of what I want from life than I did then.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this song. Don't forget to post songs that are important to you, and I might just feature them at some point.

  1. I love good music too. One of my favorites right now is by Hilary Weeks. Beautiful Heartbreak. I love how the people at the end of the video are all holding up signs. Wish it was that way in real life, people would be so much more forgiving of others if we only could see beyond what we think we know.
