Motivational/Inspiring songs to help you get past the rough times...

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>Does anyone know of/hear any motivational/inspiring songs to help you get past the rough times and look forward? I know that we are all fortunate to be having the education we have right now. Our parents have supported us while we are taking the easy route by studying, no matter how much education we get, we will probably be better of than our parents (considering that your parents have not had that much education). </p>

<p>However, there are some people out there who were born with various diseases that are impossible to list and we all get something incapacitating at some point in our lives. Music is known to motivate, soothe, and heal, but I have yet to find one that suits my needs. Please share some that you've encountered. It would be adequate to give the Song title and artist. Thanks.</p>
