Song Titles and Words
BY ARLENE HARDER, MA, MFT
Today's Take-a-Break
Choose any word and see if you can think of a song title or lyrics that contain that word. |

This Take-a-Break definitely belongs in the "moderate" category 'cause it takes a bit of thinking. But it can be a lot of fun. Here's how:
If you do this with another person, first ask him or her to think
of a word and then tell him or her your first choice. [UGH! -- can't we find a better
gender neutral description than him or her, her or him, him/her, her/him, his or hers,
hers/his, he or she, she or he, he/she, she/he? . . . it makes writing so terribly complicated
and un-melodious, especially for those times when you want the words to flow.]
Anyway, another twist on this small game is to use a simple word like "I," "you," "how," "baby," "for," "so," "my," "she," or "he," and think of as many song titles or lyrics that begin with that word as you can. There are bound to be a zillion that start with "the," but I'll bet there aren't any that begin with "She or He"!
Enjoy!!
