Farewell 2009!
December 27th, 2009 § Leave a Comment
I have to say, if I could survive 2009… I can survive anything. This has certainly been the most challenging year of my life, and yet I have been blessed with some wonderful gifts: new love, a new musical venture, and new opportunities at work. Life is not easy, but sometimes it surprises you with how sweet and beautiful it can be. As the sun sets on this year, I will continue to stay true to myself and those around me, and to remain open to what life has to offer.
With that, here are my top 10 albums of 2009, and a mix of a few songs from these artists. Hope you enjoy them as much I enjoyed them this year.
In no particular order:
