Tuesday miTunes-The Pursuit of Happyness

This song is from the movie "The Pursuit of Happyness"  and if you think I spelled it wrong, you need to watch the movie.  This is an outstanding movie based on a real story of a man who became homeless while trying to make it as a stockbroker.  It is all about Hope.  Even this song starts out somewhat ominous and in lower keys but immediately a few higher and I would say hopeful notes start to play and to me it gets more hopeful as it continues.  This is a metaphor for hope, which can start with only a few happier thoughts that we can magnify until it fills our mind with positiveness.

The other 2 songs I like from the album are called "Happyness" and "Possibly" and they always remind me of when my husband was unemployed for 8 months and we thought we were hanging on by a thread.  When we are down in the pits of life, we are desperate for threads of hope.  But if we will grab them and hold on and try to make them bigger, I think they can pull us out of those dark places.
