Humans and music have come a long way such that they are inseparable. Both of them have enjoyed so many beautiful and revolutionary years that only time can tell.
I doubt if there's anyone who doesn't like music, even God himself, the originator of music loves it when we raise our voices to sing melodious songs to him.
Everyone has preference for the type of music they listen to. Age, mood, environment, lyrics, rhythm, I believe are some of the things that inspire the kind of music people also listen to.
I'm very selective of the type of songs I listen to, and of course the lyrics, meaning are the top selective factors. There are so many trending hit circular songs that I haven't bothered listening to just because they do not appeal to me.
We all know that music inspires, motivates, comforts and heals. There are some people who without listening to music cannot be motivated or focused on their work. Some other people have found comfort in times of challenges, trials and problems while listening to music. Just like music is food to the soul it also heals it from every brokenness and pain.
Many people too have gotten inspiration to do certain things - write books, stories and songs, face their fears and challenges, change their bad lifestyles to be better persons, some too became worse through the influence of the music they listened to.
I've listened to many inspirational songs and "Never Giving Up by Fearless Soul Music Official" is one of them.
I stumbled on this song sometime ago while searching for a video on YouTube. It was actually the title that caught my attention. While listening to it, I felt like it was talking directly to me because I was at the verge of giving up on something that I was pursuing then due to some challenges that were making it difficult for me to scale through but after listening to it, I was greatly encouraged to try one more time. I did and was able to get through.
Excerpts from the lyrics
"I will take a chance to be who I want to be
I won't let fear keep me from trying"

I chose this song because it taught me that giving up is never the way to success and that fear is one of the things that hinders us from achieving our dreams.
What a perfect song to listen to at this time when the dreemport's challenge for the month focuses on going all out to make our dreem a reality and not just a dream.
Enjoy this beautiful piece which the song inspired me to write,;
"Don't give up on yourself,
don't give up on your dreams,
no matter the challenges on your way, don't give up, keep hope alive... "
"Have you failed the first time,
and you think you can no longer make it?
push that thought off your mind,
brace up and try again."
"Remember the downfall of a man is not the end of his life,
but if he refuses to get up from the fall, he has then ended his life."
"The pathway to success is never easy,
you must pass through the street of challenges,
so you have to arm yourself with courage and determination to navigate,
else you will be stuck."
"I hope you know that nothing good comes easy,
to get it you must be ready to give it your all,
for success doesn't come on a platter of gold,
rather on the platter of bold-ness."
"Tell me a man or woman who has attained great success,
and I will tell you the many challenges and failures he encountered,
but in all he/she stood firm,
and never gave up on himself (herself)."
"Fear is a killer of destiny,
fear is an enemy of one's progress.
You are your own worst enemy,
if you give up on yourself."
"If you fail to build your dreams today,
you have failed to live your dreem tomorrow.
Time waits for no one,
make hay while the sun shines,
so that when the rains arrive, you'll have a shade to rest in."
"I've resolved never to give up on myself no matter what,
I'll face my fears and conquer it,
I won't let this passion in me die off.
My dream is out there beckoning me, One step at a time along the way,
till my dreem is birthed."'
This is my entry to Dreem - WOTW S3 R3 Contest titled Let the music touch you.
Thank you for reading and I hope you don't give up on yourself.
