Music Monday - Lose Yourself



Okay, I know I have eclectic taste in music.  I also have a strong connection to Detroit having been born about an hour north of the city.  When the movie 8-Mile was released I went to see it. I watched a couple of older couples walk out in disgust, the language can be a bit strong.  I am generally not a fan of Rap or Hip-Hop, but there is a song in the sound track that catches my attention.  It is about seizing the opportunities in life, to move beyond where you are.  To take the chance, to give your all, to do your best.  It is the only Rap song in mix on my phone, and in my car.  The lyrics remind me that we are in control of our choices.  Don't leave life to chance.  

What song reminds you to seize the day?

  2. It's corny, but, "Stop and Smell the Roses". I think of Anne Marie whenever I stumble upon "Fight Like a Girl".
