Rediscovering the Magic of Songwriting

Today I was blessed with a wonderful cowrite.  I wrote with a girl who has one of the sweetest spirits I've ever met and a beautiful voice!  This was her first songwriting experience ever and I felt so excited to introduce her to the world of songwriting.

Experiencing writing with a first time writer, was such a blessing because I felt like I got to rediscover the magic in songwriting.  I do it so often that I think I forget that when you write a song, (or when you create anything) you are literally creating something that did not previously exist. Earlier today there was one less song in the world than there is right now, and that does feel magical to be able to breathe life into a song!

Creating is magic. You can make anything you want in this world. Open your mouth and sing a song. Grab a pen and bleed your soul. Grab some clay and make a mold.

 All you have to do is open your mind, and let your imagination do the rest.
