Tuesday Tunes: Bobby McFerrin


Apologies for missing a Tuesday Tunes entry last week. It was a ridiculously busy week at work, and I completely forgot to write. This week, I was determined to write, and I had to select a song that is not currently one of my anthems, but it may need to become my primary anthem. Since November, I have been battling periodic bouts of some mysterious bug that makes me feel ill for a few days at a time at approximately month intervals. I've been to doctors, and I've taken meds for an infection which has since cleared up (supposedly). Yet, I continue to have symptoms pop up with no warning. For someone who hasn't been sick this many times in 3 months in her entire life, it's been a bit of a shock to my system and my lifestyle. Just when I start to feel better, I'm pulled back down by this mysterious ailment, and frankly, my psyche is starting to show a little wear and tear from the stress of not knowing how I will feel from one day to the next. In order to help combat the mental anguish, I have decided to keep Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry, Be Happy" in my head as often as possible. If you listen to this, you'll understand that my goal should not be overly difficult, as once you've heard the song, you usually can't get it out of your head for days anyway.

If anyone out there has other ideas for how to keep my spirits up and mind off feeling awful, I will accept them gladly.

Let's all keep the cheer level high and hope that Spring gets here soon!
