Sadly, the past few weeks friends of mine have lost somebody close to them. Whether it be a family member or a close friend, losing a person you care about is not the easiest situation to deal with. Even if you have not lost somebody recently, life can easily throw some curveballs when you least expect it. Support from friends and family can be great and is always appreciated but there comes a time when you would rather be alone so that you can have time to think and take a breather. Every time I have been in a moment where I needed to catch my breath, I have the tendency to put on music. It has always helped me to calm down and think clearly about things.
