Megan's prayer: Big Daddy Weave's "Neighborhoods"

I love the musical parts of this song. The way it starts - just the instruments, no singing - sounds so happy, and familiar. I know I haven't heard that specific arrangement of notes before, except for maybe the one other time I heard this song 2 years ago. I don't really recall a specific memory when hearing the music, but I instantly feel happy. I instantly feel like I'm in a familiar place - one where everything is going to go right.

I feel like I could describe Heaven in this way. I've never been there before, yet the idea of it is so wonderful. Thinking about it makes me feel so happy. I know that being in Heaven will be unlike anything else, yet it will be so familiar and wonderful. Bad things don't happen in Heaven. Maybe this song is even played in Heaven. Who knows!

All I know is that while I am normally scared of changes and new things, the idea of Heaven is so wonderfully calming. I hope to continue to experience little bits of it here on Earth, like I did tonight with this song.
