if there's one thing life has taught me time and time again, it's that things rarely go to plan. and if there's a second thing life has taught me, it's that when i kick and scream and resist what has happened, i just end up generating more pain for myself.
... okay and if there's a THIRD thing life has taught me, it's that more often than not, after a little time and space and acceptance, i manage to find a lot of beauty and learnings and unexpectedly wonderful things that would not have otherwise existed if things had gone according to my original (and completely made up) plan.
i'm not trying to preach toxic positivity here--there's no spinning that so many of life's events are just unbearably unfair and painful and heartbreaking. but if this is how the cards have fallen, how much energy might we waste fruitlessly resisting what has come to pass and wishing it away? the more i have learned to surrender to the unfolding of things, allowing myself to feel that pain and heartache fully, while trying to find a way to move forward WITH it, as opposed to living in a perpetual state of resistance/anger/sadness/resentment, the more i have found some level of peace, and the more i have been able to see the beauty that does still exist in every moment. this of course doesn't mean we passively accept the way things are--if there is something to be DONE about things, we should by all means DO it!! but there's definitely something to be gained by learning to differentiate between the times where we can do something about it and the times we can't.
so now, when life laughs at my little human plans and throws something else my way, i try to soften. i honor my pain, and hold out hope that there may someday be beauty and growth and magic born from this very moment. who am i to presume to know the way things should go.
this is what my new song, “another way”, is all about. i hope it resonates with you somehow.

Another Way Lyrics
How would you know if what you’re needing
Isn’t something you’re not seeing
What if you lost the chance to be what you could be
How would you know that something better
Wasn’t waiting for bad weather
To soak its seeds, to give you everything you need
We have a habit of
Thinking we know the way it goes
Then it goes another way
I know the latter is not a laughing matter
But it seems we’d be crazy not to think
That maybe this could be
Exactly what should be
How would you know if someone wiser
Wasn’t forging in these fires
What if you’d washed away what could’ve set you free
How would you know if you’ve mistaken
When your heart is bruised and aching
For a bad thing when all you needed was to bleed
We have a habit of
Thinking we know the way it goes
Then it goes another way
I know the latter is not a laughing matter
But it seems we’d be crazy not to think
That maybe this could be
Exactly what should be
What if we choose that we’ll let go of
All the things we’ve no control of
What if we learn to love whatever comes to be

"Somebody wiser forging in these fires" is so powerful, Kina ❤❤❤ This one hits me right in the heart.
Thank you!
I recently left the Mormon church. In a calming way this sums up my experience. Thank you
1:20 “How would you know if someone wiser wasn’t forging in these fires?”
This lyric means so much to me.
James 1:2,3
I’m surprised to see this video was only posted 2 hours ago, because it is exactly what I need. I’m currently upset in bed all about how life went another way then I planed. But this is such a needed reminder! It’s a balm to my heart right now. Thank you Kina Grannis.
The most underrated singer/songwriter today.. perfect example of “soul stirring” music. Every time I’m feeling melancholy or have something on my mind I’ll play her and her voice literally stirs my soul into feeling great love and joy.. amazing simply amazing..
I’ve listened to this song on a loop this morning because I needed to learn both the lyrics and the lesson. Thank you for this gift of a song, Kina. It’s winner for sure. 😘
Right now I'm feeling lost, but I actually realized recently that I've been feeling like this for a while. And I know this could've been different and I could've felt better a while ago, and it could've all been another way. But maybe I did need to bleed a little, it's just upsetting how I've made other people bleed with me along the way. Thank you Kina 💔
I never have come across a songwriter-singer to express the truest of the deepest, hidden, unspoken feelings in our hearts.
I just met this song a minute ago, God is speaking to me thru this song. I am now relieved. Maybe this could be exactly what should be🤍
I love your CLOSER video with harry shum Jr Soo much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are MAGICAL! Thank you for existing! Thank you for your voice! Thank you for everything! 💟
wahh thank YOU!!!
@@KinaGrannis WOW! You actually replied! Thank you! You just made my whole year. I listened to your song twice and it almost made me cry. Your music is so real!
Bravo Maestra! It's Kina Friday for me, old school TWO WEEKS FOR KINA. Yep! How is your family doing Jessie, Dr. Grannis, Mrs. Grannis, Misa, Emi, and your Road Manager from 2012 Beth? Hope you are all well.
Beautiful song. Beautiful message. 💜🤟💜
This song explains my situation to a tee. A Sonnet in a form a melodic song.
This is so beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time.
This, like your acoustic version of Souvenirs, touches, embraces and pushes my emotions and heart to level seldom felt in my many years. Reminds me to stay in the moments, good and bad, and to evolve through them. Thank you, Kina, for this!! 💞🌹💞
exactly the song of my season, always. it's a reminder to myself that i am not the one in control. and that i can trust The One who is in control.
This woman can do no wrong. Much love and keep on keepin on J.
Thank you for this portal to the deepest parts of the soul. I just couldn't imagine the better time in my life to find this song. Just first few seconds reminded me about one of my favourite poems by Rumi that I found recently. But in my humble opinion, you've just elevated this message to another level 🖤
Who makes these changes?
I shoot an arrow right.
It lands left.
I ride after a deer and find myself
Chased by a hog.
I plot to get what I want
And end up in prison.
I dig pits to trap others
And fall in.
I should be suspicious
Of what I want.
A very poetic way to sing about destiny - beautiful!
Oh, and kudos to the piano player, it was it was you wasn't it? You know what I like Acoustic Serene Perfection. Thank You once more from FRAGILÉ Detroit!
aw thanks, as a matter of fact it was me! though a real piano player would have done a much cleaner job for sure!
@@KinaGrannis Nah, you were perfect. Arrangement, tempo, sound of keys played to perfection! I still remember you playing the Glockenspiel! I think it prepared you to play the piano.
PS Pretty please play your Banjo that's hanging on your musical instrument wall. A duet with Jessie or a quartet including Misa & Emi would be amazing!
Amazing ❤ Such a beautiful song!
Again Kina.. your song saved my soul again.. I’m on the verge of giving up because everything happened around me aren’t going as what I’m expected. Thank you.. Thank you.. Thank you..
sending you so much love ♥️♥️
Waow.. Greeting from Indonesia😍
Tout simplement magnifique. Quelle magnifique chanson venant d'une magnifique femme
You're a beautiful spirit, fly free and know that love follows you miss
❤️🙂✌️
I can feel the lyrics,
I can feel the instrumentals,
I can feel your singing,
...
I can feel this song. It really touched my heart.
you are honestly an ANGEL. you make any song a powerfull meaningfull perfect thing,
Deep. Soulful. Searching. Thank you!
"All the days of the afflicted one are bad, But the one with a cheerful heart has a continual feast." - Proverbs 15:15
Untethered soul by Michael Singer. Best book to relate somehow like this song.
I was watching this on my phone and my partner said "I don't know what you are watching but her voice is beautiful and I'm starting to cry"....it's good! It's soooo good!
😭♥️🙏🏻
Con questa canzone e la tua voce la mia anima sorride. Grazie.
Dalla Sardegna - Italia
❤️
Super relate with the lyrics...
With my situation now, thank you kina
The world can feel so inexplicably big sometimes, yet other times it feels so small.
Kina, you’ve written this song as a result of tremendous trials and growth from your recent life experience, yet I listen to every word and note and feel as though you‘ve looked into my soul and written it all for me. So many of us, going through our own trials and growth in different forms, yet there’s still a common thread, connecting us all. That’s what this song feels like to me. It feels like connection. It feels like light. It feels like home.
It’s hard for me to put into words what I mean exactly. I hope I’ve made some sense to anyone reading. I guess in the end, all I’m trying to say is, art is beautiful, and a heartfelt thank you, Kina. Thank you for who you are and for what you give through your art, which is way more than I can put into words, and probably much more than you ever imagined.
♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🏻
this is such a fitting song in times of uncertainty for me
Prettyyyyy
Very nice song
So moving particularly in light of her personal circumstances at the time
Beautiful. Quiet strength.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
*On repeat* Maybe this could be exactly what it should be. People who experienced infertility know how this sentence makes sense. May the Universe gives us what we deserve 🤲
Thank you Kina for never disappointing us with your beautiful songs. You're such a gift on Earth 💋
These words hit me deep. Thank you for sharing.🙏🏽❤
💙 💙 💙 💙 💙
this is beyond amazing. thank you for baring ur soul to help heal ours. all the love
❤️❤️🍁🍂
Lyrically, this is so powerful. The simplicity of the piano chords makes this a true gem! 🙏🏼
So beautiful! 💚💛
I probably listened to this song like a million times already, since finding it on spotify a few days ago.
The lyrics are truly reflexive, but at the same time your voice is so calming that even when there's no words, it spells that it's ok to be scared about uncertainty in life.
Beautiful one kina thankyousomuch🌼 Your music is like medicine sending tons of love and blessings..❤️🎵🎶
This came just at the right time. It’s hard to find peace when we are always experiencing different traumas and losses. Thank you for this beautiful piece. I will listen and sing imagining listening to it with my late mom ♥️
Super.👏👏👏👏
So beautiful! 💔 Yep it hits home. Thank you so much for your awesome video/song!
❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks for this great song I really needed today. Lost lately and not sure which way to cast off and sail anymore but I'm working on it.
Definition of Perfection! 😌💜
This needs 10x as many views for how amazingly talented Kina actually is!
The sense of uncertainty is frightening for most of us. Learning to let go, flow in the situation and embrace whatever comes is a hard process.
it is the absolute hardest!!!
😍❤️
So on time this song is , its really amazing what u are doing with your gift 😀thank you🙏🏾🙌
I still have a crush on Kina Grannis
You have an angelic voice.

Don't ever give up Kina! I value your singing and friendship more than you know. 🌱💐🪴🌾🌻🌴🌺
Always beautiful!

Goosebumps❤
Every song you have made hits right in my heart. Like a kindred spirit singing directly into my soul ♥️ The words I need to hear with a melody that makes me feel vulnerable and raw. I always feel these songs, and it makes me appreciate the melancholy sadness mixed with beauty. Because I often find sadness to be incredibly beautiful and a powerful tool to create ♥️
Knowing what you've been through and where you are now, Kina, we cry happy tears with you.
God gave this song to me today right when I needed it. So glad to have found you today!
I’m so glad you exist ❤️
For sure I'll keep listening to it on repeat
Beautiful song 🥺
I didn't know i needed this today, thank you sweet soul. Absolutely exsquisite voice, spectacular lyrics, need more of This 🫂💜🌟
God, Kina this is amazing!💚🌻
Kina, I've followed you since your beginnings on UA-cam, back in 2008 or 2009, if I remember correctly.
I have always admired your sensitivity and your tenderness, your wonderful creativity and the music that you compose. You are a true gift of life.
That same sensitivity that makes you wonderful also makes you more vulnerable. And that is what I am seeing in your music, every day more clearly.
This song has reached the depths of my soul, and I must admit that it has hurt. But you are totally right: we must make a part of our life everything that does not turn out as we would like, be it a project, a friendship or a love. We must live with all the beauty that we have had the fortune to experience, and we must let everything that went wrong hurt us, all the people who did not become what we wanted or those others who let us down. We must understand and let go, keeping the most beautiful. And start over that blank book that is our life.
Thanks a million for this wonderful song, and for all the music you have given us throughout your career. You're great!!!
A huge hug.
Beautiful song
This song is right up there in my TOP 3 beside "Message from your heart" and "Lose you to love me".
this song puts me in reflective mode. really calm down and get into the moment
Absolutely amazing
Kina your Lyrics are as Charismatic as your voice as YOU are!
I always find myself being so still and deep in my feelings when I listen to you. You are one special woman, Kina. Thank you for your gift. I am in awe of you every time. You truly are an amazing artist. 🤍
Very pretty. Beautiful voice.
Im in love with your voice 😍❤️
Tears down just waiting the smile that will come. Thanks Kina.
Wow 😍😍😍
sadly beautiful, beautifully sad.
Therapy for free..❤️
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you, Kina. Such thought-provoking lyrics. Makes me think of how they apply to my life and to others in my life and to ....
lovely 🌹
BEAUTIFUL!
We will do what we can do
But there's so much we can't, and that's okay...
Thank you soo much for this! 💕💕
Wow, this is next level pop...if I may say, I mean perfectly written, performed & arranged (I came here through discover a song you sung with Marie Digby & didn't regret it, congrats , this is beautiful ! Cheers from France....(besides you & Marie are now in my (quite modest compared to yours, lol) channel's playlist/pop-rock section...)
To me this song in three words "Accepting Life Changes"😥❤😊
