Tonight at my church meeting we talked about the Beatitude (this year's all about the Beatitudes), "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted."

It was a very powerful meeting, particularly the part where we all shared what we mourn. There was also comforting going on as well - people giving hugs, people thanking others for having given well-timed hugs, some laughter, and comforting words.

On the way home, I needed music - particularly those songs that let me mourn. It seemed a fitting ending to the evening. I also realized that music is a BIG comfort to me and a release of emotions.

What songs let you mourn or what songs comfort you when you mourn? Is music something that comforts you?

Here's what I listened to on the way home:

Evanescence - Bring Me to Life and My Immortal
Brandi Carlile - Turpentine, Tragedy, and Hallelujah

As for songs that comfort, I love to listen to "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" by Simon and Garfunkle.
