Sometimes it can be hard to look at the world and believe that love will come your way. Relationships are hard. One of the main things I read about is that there has to be good communication for a realtionship to work well and flourish and yet sometimes a simple thing like communication can be one of the hardest things to do.

I remember I spent a great deal of my childhood with my cousin in her room. These songs played in the background, and somehow they gave us hope. They were the songs my cousin listened to as she went through highschool, boyfriends, and heartache. I have compliled a playlist of songs that remind me of those times and that can bring solace to anyone who needs to hear something to not lose hope.
