Did you pick your theme song for the year?

As I have said before I am not big on New Year's resolutions. To me they seem futile attempts to do things you already know you should do but dont want to. I get it. It's like a reason to hold off on starting something new and then an excuse why you didn't follow through.
No thanks.
The last few years there has been a movement away from resolutions in favour of using a new year as an opportunity for fresh inspiration. The practice of choosing a new word for the year, creating a vision board and choosing a theme song are all positive ways to fill up your motivation tank.
Last year I shared my theme song for the year on facebook. Hedley's Brighter Days really resonated with where I was in my mental health journey ...unfortunately soon after Hedley band members had to face some dark days of their own.

This year sucked for me. Things happened in my life that I could never have imagined in my worst nightmares. Ironically, this year I am feeling stronger and more empowered than I have in years. Every day I struggle with the symptoms of my Mental health. I often feel like I am losing ground. Its seems though that the darker my life gets the more I can see how I am being held up by God. This year my theme song lets me feel like it's ok to admit I am not ok in order to show Gods strength and love.

I keep fighting voices in my mind that say I’m not enough
Every single lie that tells me I will never measure up
Am I more than just the sum of every high and every low?
Remind me once again just who I am, because I need to know (ooh oh)

You say I am loved when I can’t feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don’t belong, oh You say that I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
I believe

The only thing that matters now is everything You think of me
In You I find my worth, in You I find my identity, (ooh oh)

You say I am loved when I can’t feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
And You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don’t belong, oh You say that I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
Oh, I believe

Taking all I have and now I'm laying it at Your feet
You have every failure God, and You'll have every victory, (ooh oh)

You say I am loved when I can’t feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don’t belong, oh You say that I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
I believe

Oh I believe (I), yes I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
Oh I believe (oh)
