Walking back to my apartment I heard a song I had not in years, Beast of Burden by the Rolling Stones

I found myself walking to the beat, singing aloud

When I got to my apartment I felt better, almost elated. I think my current low has ended or, at the very least lifted a bit

Then I heard Everybody Hurts by REM

This is a song that sounds depressing but it very uplifting

Then Born to Run by Bruce Springsteen. And I danced.

Yes, I am an almost 50 year old man, renting a room, unemployed, no luck, no love but I danced

I feel ... well... like dancing
