OUR PICK - Ry Moran

To lose someone close to your heart is the most agonizing and devastating thing that anyone has to go through.  Yet every minute of every day someone is hurting because of the loss of a loved one.  I never fully understood why people go through depression or sadness differently, until I experienced it myself.  And for those of you that have climbed that big mountain of hurt and sadness and came out stronger, full of faith and hope, I salute you.  

The song ‘Feel You Here’ from Métis artist Ry Moran is the perfect example of the magic of music.  Not only is the song full of passion and strength, it also reminds us of our ancestors that were here before us.  ‘Feel You Here’ is beautifully mastered by the soothing voice of musical talent and the cry of the piano.  

I recently lost my older sister Nerissa. Her loss is something that I still cope with and always will. I know in my heart and mind that she will always be there. Music has always been in my heart and soul and that is what gets me by everyday.

To be honest, if that song never existed I don’t know how I would be able to heal from the pain of losing my sister. To this day the more I listen to it,  the more it makes me smile knowing the big impact that my sister had during her brief time on all of her family and friends.  Death is a touchy subject, but one that should not be ignored, for it is the next journey we will all have to take. The life you have on this earth is the one chance you have to leave a lasting embrace on the next generations to come.
