Songs for when you’re sad

People who know me well would tell you that I can almost always find a bright side in any situation; very rarely am I totally at a loss. In general, I am a person filled with faith and hope. A much older friend of mine once thanked me for being an inspiration to her because, in the many years she’d known me, she had never failed to see me find a silver lining no matter how cloudy my sky.

The circumstances of my life taught me to locate the tiniest pinholes of light, so those people who know me tend to get worried when all I can see is the dark. I was lost in the dark for a little while, not too long ago and I wanted to share something positive that grew there.
