Even 5 Days Feels Forever! I Hate Airplanes…

It’s true that when you truly love someone that you let them go and enjoy other things by themselves! My babe is gonna go see family for 5 days while I am home. The moment I dropped her off at the airport at 3:30 this morning I played this song… because even if it isn’t long… it feels like forever without my person. Couldn’t imagine what I would do if she was gone longer than that. I’m thankful to have a love like hers and can’t wait to have her back in my arms! Love you babe… have a safe 2nd flight! ✈️ 🩵💜@꧁༻✰T҉ru R҉omeo 6̤̮9̤̮✰༻꧂ #bonesaltel♾️ #alexandrakay #ihateairplanes #countrymusic #lovemysoulmate

... Read moreIt's so interesting how certain songs just get you when you're going through something. Like, when my person left for her 5-day trip, that feeling of 'I hate airplanes' was so real. I found myself diving into Alexandra Kay's music, and honestly, it's been such a comfort. Her voice, her lyrics... they just hit different when you're missing someone. She really understands those deep emotions of love and longing. I think that's why so many of us connect with her work, especially songs from her album 'All I've Ever Known'. Speaking of 'All I've Ever Known,' have you ever really looked at the album cover? It's so evocative. From what I remember seeing, it often features her in a very natural, almost raw setting, reflecting the authentic country sound she's known for. Sometimes it's a soft, warm light, perhaps a rustic backdrop, or even just her expressive face, capturing that blend of vulnerability and strength. It really sets the tone for the heartfelt stories told within the songs. It's not just a picture; it's a visual prelude to the emotional journey of the album. For me, seeing the 'All I've Ever Known' album cover while listening just amplifies the feeling of connection, making those moments of missing someone a little less lonely. There's something about tracking a flight, isn't there? You drop them off at the airport, maybe at DFW, and then you're home, glued to flightradar24, watching their plane – perhaps a Mitsubishi CRJ-900LR with tail number N567NN – make its way to BHM or wherever they're headed. Every minute feels like an hour when you're waiting for them to land safely. That's when you truly feel that 'I hate airplanes' sentiment. You just want them back! It's that bittersweet feeling of wanting them to have their own adventures, but also just wanting them right next to you. Alexandra Kay's music, particularly from 'All I've Ever Known,' really captures that blend of independence and intense longing. It’s like she’s singing the soundtrack to your own experience of love and temporary separation. If you're also in a situation where your partner is traveling, or just navigating a partner's solo trip, remember it's okay to feel emotional. Lean into those feelings, find comfort in music like Alexandra Kay's, and know that the wait, however long those 5 days might feel, makes the reunion even sweeter. It’s a testament to the strength of your bond when you can let each other grow and explore, even if it means a little heartache in between. So, queue up some country music, maybe dive into 'All I've Ever Known,' and remember that true love always finds its way back home. It's a journey, and her tunes are definitely the perfect companion.
