Don't worry about a thing, 'cause every little thing gonna be all right.

Today’s daily prompt was: Take a line from a song that you love or connect with. Turn that line into the title of your post.

I’m a big fan of Bob Marley. Whenever I’m feeling down, I can put some Bob Marley on and it won’t be too long until I’m feeling better. If I am feeling happy, I can put some Bob Marley on and sing along, joyfully, at the top of my lungs. I once got through a horrendous traffic jam all the way from San Diego to Los Angeles (whick took HOURS) by blasting Bob Marley the whole time.

His music reminds me that things are ok. When things seem bad…when work is stressful, or maybe when I’m struggling with something…it reminds me that these problems are fleeting and in the end, everything really is going to be all right.

Three Little Birds, Bob Marley

“Don’t worry about a thing,
‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right.
Singin’: “Don’t worry about a thing,
‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right!”

Rise up this mornin’,
Smiled with the risin’ sun,
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin’ sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin’, (“This is my message to you-ou-ou:”)

Singin’: “Don’t worry ’bout a thing,
‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right.”
Singin’: “Don’t worry (don’t worry) ’bout a thing,
‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right!”

Singin’: “Don’t worry about a thing, worry about a thing, oh!
Every little thing gonna be all right. Don’t worry!”
Singin’: “Don’t worry about a thing” – I won’t worry!
“‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right.”

‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right!
