“10 Songs to Lift Your Spirits” by Joan Y. Edwards
When I’m feeling a down, sometimes I search the internet for spiritually uplifting songs on YouTube or other sites. Here are ten of my favorites that I believe will lift your spirits and change your focus to happier thoughts.
1. “Shake it Off” Taylor Swift – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfWlot6h_JM

Thank you Joan, you always find a way to inspire me. I could use some songs like these right about now 😊 thank you for reminding me of some songs I had forgotten about and introducing me to some new ones!
Hey Joan! I love the look of your new website. Very nice!
Shake it Off is the song I always turn to when I think of someone not liking my book. Because that will happen — not everyone will like it. That’s inevitable. And people may not say nice things because for some reason people often feel the need to be mean. So I tell myself I will have to learn to “shake it off.” Great list of songs. 🙂
Dear Shawn,
Thanks for writing. I’m glad you love the look of my new theme for my blog. I had a hard time finding another free template with three columns, but I finally found this one. I liked it because it has the number of comments at the top. Also that the links are in lime-green. I’m so glad you like it.
Glad that “Shake It Off” helps you, too. It’s a great thing to remember that we have to let it go when someone says something that upsets us. I haven’t always been able to let it go. I sort of drag it along with me like a fetter on a chain gang for a long time before I’m able to laugh at myself, love myself as I am, and let it go.
I love you.

Thanks so much for the songs. Can’t wait to play through the list. I’m familiar with some, but not all.

Dear JQ,
Thanks for letting me know that you like the new blog theme. I wanted a change. I found this three column theme with a place at the top with comments link. I liked that. I also liked the lime green links. So glad you like it, too. That makes it even better.
