The Someday Soundtrack

Raise your hand if any of the following apply to you.

The Someday Soundtrack
Tori Sanders

Raise your hand if any of the following apply to you:

A. I have made an over-zealous, spur-of-the-moment, off-the-cuff bucket list.

B. I have dreams of traveling across the United States someday. (key word: someday)

C. I enjoy a good song now and again.

What's that? You raised your hand for A, B, and C?

If this is the case, then keep reading. What follows is the soundtrack to your adventure around the good ole' red, white, and blue - the 'Someday Soundtrack', if you will. Save this list and add to it. Make it better and make it perfect for the roadtrip you've always imagined. In the end, the idea is that you have a bucket list of tunes that you can cross off every time you sing a song in it's respective location. Finish the list, and you'll be enjoying a real 'Party in the USA'.

So dream on, travel on, sing on, my friends - adventure is out there.

Check this song off the list in Birmingham, Alabama. The Southland is calling your name, and you must go.

Others may disagree, but the Rocky Mountain High is the best kinda high there is. Cathedral mountains and silver clouds are waiting - Check this song off the list from the top of a mountain in Colorado.

However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
