When I was in Junior High School, probably 15 years old, our project was to pick songs and describe what they were about. I don't remember many things from my childhood or even adult life, but I will never forget the songs I chose, and it shows that as a Libra I love balance, I love to show both sides, and I have a very diverse taste in music which has expanded since the 1980's new wave and dark wave, into hip hop and electronica, I still love to listen to Hair Nation when I can catch it on Sirius/XM.
It is interesting that the Whitney Houston song is about taking care of yourself, loving yourself, putting yourself first, which is a big theme in my coaching today. Gun's and Roses is exactly the opposite, it is about excess, addiction, and getting out of control. The funny thing is that I love to say excess once in a while is moderation, but I have never been drawn to it because Thank God there is nothing better than my natural high. I really loved the hair metal music back then, I don't really think I knew what all the lyrics meant, I had a very innocent childhood and feel blessed for that, I am trying to do the same for my kids. There is some crazy stuff online parents, keep an eye on what your kids are doing.
I guess my point in my class presentation what to show two sides, positive and negative, and to be aware how important it is to stay true to yourself and keep checking in with your gut, no matter what is going on around you, take care of you.
