Hey there, 
Ok quick question….What song is playing in the background?
No really- I’m asking you this question! Is there a song playing whilst you’re reading this post?!
Firstly… thank you for reading my blog post you cutey!
Secondly…. if there is a song playing, what’s it singing to you? What’s the song about?
Pause and have a listen?
Some incredibly talented group of artists have put their life energy, love, thoughts, feelings, time, money, effort and persistence into creating this song that is being played to you right now! That’s pretty cool if you think about it for a moment.
This ‘Game with no name’ which I am introducing you to; makes for a fun little connection to all things bigger then us- AKA the universe, energy, flow whatever you feel comfy calling it.
Some of you might be rolling your eyes right now… and that’s ok… roll away. But please read on and just try it out for a little fun- you have nothing to lose right?!
Last week I was doing some work at my favourite coffee spot and I had some serious multitasking going on. Part of me was well and truly focused on completing the work task at hand, yet another part of me was stewing over something in my life/mind at that time! This felt like a whole brain workout!! And as I was unconsciously burning through neural pathways marinating in my own worry story….
‘Let it be, Let it be, Let it be, Let it be’ by the Beatles softly echoed in the background!
I paused, and realised what the Beatles were trying to tell me. ‘LET IT BE Luca’… it doesn’t get much clearer than that! Point taken, thanks universe!
Not long after that, I was driving with a friend and we were talking about all things adulthood! Relationships, Essential oils, Decisions, Pilates, Wineries, Work, Job offers and Eating less sugar etc.
My friend states aloud..‘I’m worried, what do I do about X.Y.Z???” (Privacy and confidentiality is always maintained)!
Sure enough as we paused in conversation to ponder WTF the next step was…???
‘Don’t worry… Be Happy’ by Bobby McFerrin is playing in the background.
I had to be mindful not to close my eyes mid drive as we both laughed till our eyes watered! Oh man- thanks universe!!! It might not have answered her questions directly but it lifted the mood and feeling in all of 2 seconds!
I understand that 2 examples don’t necessarily convince a crowd that this is a good game, but try for yourself and see what happens?
Here’s the ‘Game with no Name’ specs:
- Next time you are thinking deeply, wondering or pondering something… Pause
- Jump out of your mind and tune into the tunes playing in the background- they might be telling you exactly what you need to hear?!
- SHARE your experience next time this happens. Message me, reply to this post, text me… I’d LOVE to know!
- And finally..it doesn’t have to make sense, to make sense! It’s just a game, you don’t need to take it too seriously so do it with a smile!
Oh and for the record…. the song playing in the background as I sign off is ‘Music knows no Boundaries’ by Lady Smith Black Mambazo!!!
Now that’s got to make you smile!😉
