When I first posted this QOTD, I would simply post the quote with no personal reflection or reflective prompt. I’ve always thought about expanding my QOTD posts. However, it took nearly a year to figure out how I wanted to handle these posts. So, I will post the same quote and provide the information as I currently handle it. This post was originally posted on August 24, 2024.
Personal Reflection
Music has always had a way of cutting through the noise. Elvis said it plain—when you feel it, you move. That’s the essence of rock and roll, but it’s also the essence of being alive. Too often, we overthink what should just be felt. I’ve learned that if something stirs you—whether it’s music, words, or even silence—you owe it to yourself not to hold back. That instinct to move, to respond, is proof you’re still lit from the inside.
Reflective Prompt
What’s a song that still makes you move without hesitation? Does it remind you of who you were, or who you still are?
