It was kicked off by a wonderful yoga retreat in Bali where each day was just about being. Nothing more. Nothing less. Listen on Apple Music (missing songs) Listen on Spotify “Three Little Birds” by Bob Marley & The Wailers As I sat … Continue reading Songs of My Life: June 2019
Besides being all over the place, I feel the theme for March musically is being strong. Strong enough to know better, do better, be better.

Listen on AppleMusic Listen on Spotify “Stronger” by Kayne West I heard this … Continue reading Songs of My Life: March 2019
May did not have a theme nor a message. Just good tunes. I like it like that. It’s nice when the brain, the heart, the soul, the spirit, and The Universe is one. I was at peace in May and the happiest I have been in a long time. I’m grateful and it was not taken for granted at all. Listen on Spotify Listen/Watch on … Continue reading Songs of My Life: May 2018
March’s message is simple: Everything’s gonna be all right. Listen on Spotify Listen/Watch on YouTube or below “Three Little Birds” by Bob Marley This song drifted into my head at the beginning of the month and has stuck with me through it out.

I give you Volume 2. Narrowing this down to 20 was so freaking hard. So many songs!! The last 20 years have been filled with gems that’s for sure. I also realized I am quite influenced by songs with “train” in the title. There was two in Volume 1, one here. Again, these songs are a part of who I am and have influenced me for … Continue reading The Music History of Shelia: Volume 2 (1996-2016)
April, the month, saw the birth of April the Giraffe’s baby. Finally. Yes, I stalked the internet waiting for that giraffe to be born. April also had my head in a fucking god damn tizzy. I swung back and forth between “fucking hostile” and “fucking crying”. Finally, toward the end of the month, I landed in between both moods in the area of “fucking fuck … Continue reading Songs of My Life: April 2017

I’m not really sure August had a “theme”…if it did, I couldn’t figure it out. Musically, the songs this month where all over the freaking place! They matched my scattered mind, thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Maybe that is the theme…scattered. Who knows really? I know, I don’t for sure. “Saying Goodbye” by Sugarcult I woke on August 1st singing this song. I kind of fell … Continue reading Songs of My Life: August 2015
