What Doesn't Kill You

 

  Sometimes, we really need something sustain us when we feel depressed.  I think the song is a perfect one to sustain us.  The title of the song is “What Doesn't Kill You”.  The song is from Kelly Clarkson’s fifth studio album, Stronger, was released in October 2011.  This is an upbeat song.  The song is about a girl whose boyfriend left her, but the girl didn't think this is the end of her life, and she thought this is the new beginning of her life.  I love the song pretty much after I heard the song from radio because the song always give me some energy, and make me feel self-confidence.  The song talks about a woman should be more confident after breaking up with her boyfriend, but I think the song can sustain us when we have any problems and challenges. 

  I always remember one of the sentences in the lyric, “what doesn't kill you make you stronger”.   I like the sentence so much.  We have a lot of problems and challenges in our life.  We fight against them in our whole life.  Sometimes, we are afraid of the problems and challenges, but do we ever think we become stronger because of them?  I took a PE class this semester because I want to be healthier.  I spend a lot of time on treadmill because I like running.  When I almost ran out all of my energy in last a few minutes, the evil would appear in my brain to persuade me to give up.  I knew I need something to sustain me to keep running, so I played the song on my cell phone.  The strong melody and upbeat lyric could give me energy to defeat the evil, and make me believe I will be stronger if I overcome the challenge.  

  As you can see, the song always sustains me, and makes me to hold my faith strongly. I hope this song can sustain you also.  We have many challenges in our life, but we should trust ourselves that we can overcome all of challenges, and we will become stronger after overcoming them.
