The Woman & Modern Music
If we needed any more confirmation that as a woman we impact a man's heart, we could simply look to modern
music. Lyrics do an excellent job of expressing exactly what that impact looks like.

Music is poetry. It remains a window into our hearts and souls as human beings. Defined as literary work in which
special intensity is given to the expression of feelings and ideas by the use of distinctive style and rhythm; poems
collectively or as a genre of literature, poetry gives us insight into that specific era of time. Defined as vocal or
instrumental sounds (or both) combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of
emotion we see the impact music has had on every generation and gender from the beginning. With that being said,
there's no doubt as women we have the power to inspire, uplift, edify, encourage support and strengthen the man in
our life.

How do we do that you might ask? Here’s a scientific answer. Cognitive neuroscientist, author, and speaker Doctor
Caroline Leaf reminds us that our feelings follow our thoughts and our thoughts stem from our memories — so let’s
commit to remembering the good in our past experiences (regardless of how difficult) while becoming intentional
about building positive memories moving forward. Then, from there, we have the ability to inspire these kinds of
legacies:

She gets on you
Under your skin like a tattoo
She'll always be there

She ain't goin' nowhere
She's like finally coming home
Seeing that light in the window on
After being gone too long
– “Staring at the Sun” by Jason Aldean

We give them the strength to change. We give them peace. We offer meaning to their busy lives.

I'm not the same man since she's been around…
It's her love that brings me peace…
– “She's Got a Way with Me” by Billy Currington

We inspire them to seek God, to become the best versions of themselves.

…I wanna be a good man
A 'do like I should' man…
– “The Man I Want to Be” by Chris Young

We allow them to get excited about life.

And I think to myself what a wonderful world
– “What a Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong
