I Can Make it Through the Rain

This song played in my brain when I woke up this morning.

Apparently MC wrote it after her divorce. 

The MV tells the story of her parents' relationship. 

The song reflected both scenarios well, in my view.

MC's divorce was widely publicised, and I couldn't imagine what she might have gone through.

She was married at a young age to an established music producer.

If that is not an imbalanced relationship, I don't know what is.

She found the strength to walk away, and survived hell after the divorce.

Lost the rights to her old songs, but made LOTS more new & better ones.

Producers aligned to her ex refused to work with her, but she pushed through.

And the rest, may I say, is history (or MC would say "her"story).

I can make it through the rain

I can stand up once again

On my own cause I know

That I am strong enough to mend

Thanks MC for this song, for embodying strength, for being a total inspiration.

You truly are a Queen!
