Wide Open Spaces

One song that really relates to my life right now is an old song called "Wide Open Spaces" by The Dixie Chicks.  It is a country song that just about anyone listens to, young or old.  Mostly women and young girl teenagers listen to the song more though.  It is a video and cd, whichever one you prefer.  The song is about a girl moving on to a new life style and how she needs new, wide, open spaces.  The girl's attitude is sad that she is leaving, but is happy because of the new life she is starting for herself.  This songs really relates to me because I just moved on to a new part of my life- college.  I was very upset to leave my parents because I have been part of them for 18 years.  On the other hand though, I was very happy to meet new people, live by myself, and start off a new great life for myself.  This song makes me sing as loud as I can because it relates to me so well at this point right now.  It not only relates to me, but to my momo because in the song it says "Mom stares out the window and says, "I'm leaving my girl."  It was a coincidence, but my mom said the exact words when I left for my move in day at Wright State.  I have listened to this song every day just to remember my mom and dad and my new start to a terrific life.
