We all have that friend or family member, that no matter how things are going, they’re always complaining. It may be subtle and not even intentional, but they’ve fallen into a rut. You see them and ask, “Hey, how’s it going?” Then the minute the words have left your mouth; you instantly regret them.

“I can never catch a break. My luck will never change…”
“It’s my lot in life…”

No matter the hour, the day, or time of year, it’s always the same. They complain about the traffic, the kids, their job, their neighbors, the weather, their life in general. After hearing the same old, same old, maybe you find that you don’t visit or call as often. It’s become monotonous…

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for showcasing this song today. Not only is it one of my island songs, but I had the wonderful opportunity to see him perform, In Your Eyes, in Detroit, with a full repertoire of singers and musicians. It was one of the most beautiful and inspiring pieces I’ve ever heard. The African influence/rhythms just grab you by your socks and take over. It’s impossible to sit still.
