Trade Your Heart For Armor – Miranda Lambert Tells The Tin Man Why

October 31, 2017 Rachel Ferrucci 16 Comments

The Wizard of Oz brings so many wonderful memories, from watching it as a kid to watching it with my own children. Miranda Lambert uses the character The Tin Man to share about her broken heart. Life throws so many curve balls at us and sometimes it feels as if every ball is hitting us dead on. When Miranda was going through the pain of emptiness, it brought a new light on the Tin Man and what he represents; cold, empty, loneliness, and heartless. sunset

I feel like life has been pretty good to me but it doesn’t mean that I avoided heart break. When I listen to Miranda Lambert’s song, Tin Man, she is telling him how lucky he is not to have a heart.

If you ever felt one breaking, You’d never want a heart

Have you ever cried so hard you lost all strength and fell to the ground?

Has your heart been torn into so many pieces you thought it would never heal?

About a year ago my heart didn’t just break, it was shattered. For months (13 to be exact) I didn’t think the pieces could ever be put together. Recently I’ve been finding pieces like shards of glass and praying they would start to be glued back together. Every single word Miranda sings I can relate to. Miranda trys to talk the Tin Man out of getting a heart and would gladly trade her heart with scars for his armor. It’s a song that brings you to a specific point in your life. Our heart is one of our strongest organs but can be broken easily and takes a long time to heal. waves crashing

You give me your armor, And you can have my heart

Miranda opens up and shows us that we’re not alone, even celebrities are affected by broken hearts. We can listen to Tin Man, sing along with Miranda as we sing to the Tin Man. I feel listening to music is a great way to get it out and eventually start to heal. Miranda gives us that with Tin Man!

Listen to the Tin Man (Unplugged) video for yourself – Tin Man by Miranda Lambert

 

Do you think the Tin Man is lucky to have no heart?

    I don’t normally go in for country music, but I’ve been a fan of Miranda Lambert from the beginning. Her voice and writing can really touch the heart.

    I, along with many others, have had my heart broken. It’s after the heartbreak that truly defines who we are, Do we let it consume us, or do we pick up the pieces and move forward? This song might be one for those who are going through heartbreak.

    Hearts get broken, Hearts Mend, but I definitely think it is better to have one than not to have one at all. I like Miranda Lambert, but hadn’t heard this one, off to take a listen now and see if it should make my Spotify Country Playlist.

    I like listening to country music on occasion, and Miranda Lambert is one of the artists I listen to during those days. I will have to listen to her song, Tin Man. Heartbreaks are meant to strengthen us, to make us wiser, and to teach us that as long as it is beating, there is hope. I would rather have a heart with scars than to not have any heart at all.

    Miranda Lambert is a great country artist. I know most of her songs have so much similarity to what she is going through in real life. That is why many people can relate to the lyrics of her song. However, in response to your question, I would rather have a broken heart that can heal than to have none at all.

    That CD needs to come with a package of tissues! It gets me every time. That tells you what a powerful artist she is that she can evoke such emotion.

Why did no one warn us that menopause would turn our bodies into a crime scene… Dryness. Pain. Sneezing roulette. UTIs showing up uninvited. And doctors smiling politely and saying, “That’s just aging.” Cool. Love that for us.

Say Hello to Silky Peach Cream 🍑 A bioidentical estriol cream that works locally to rebuild thinning tissue, restore moisture, and bring back comfort where it actually matters. Not a Band-Aid. Not a $350 prescription. Not a lube that disappears by lunchtime.

Estriol is the gentlest form of estrogen our bodies naturally make, and Silky Peach Cream puts it back exactly where menopause took it away. Over time, tissue rebuilds, moisture returns, and suddenly intimacy doesn’t feel like sandpaper and regret.

Two pumps nightly. Then maintenance. Because it took years to get this dry… it’s okay if it takes a little time to feel normal again.

I’m done whispering about menopause. I got my life back.  And my peach is happy again!

I didn’t expect this to be the hardest part of getting older.

If sex hurts. If you avoid intimacy. If you dread wiping.

It’s not “just dryness.” It’s estrogen loss. And yes, it’s fixable.

Menopause doesn’t ease in quietly. It shows up hot, uncomfortable, and disruptive. And for way too long, women are told to whisper about it or accept it as “just aging.” I’m done with that.

Silky Peach Cream helped restore moisture, rebuild thinning tissue, and bring back comfort where menopause took it away. Not a quick fix. Not a Band-Aid. Just real, gradual relief that made me feel like myself again.

Two pumps. Some patience. And a lot less suffering.

Stop whispering about menopause. You deserve relief. You deserve joy. Your peach deserves to be happy again.

In paid partnership with #NoPainPact and with the support of #VoicesforNonOpioidChoices. 

When I found out I needed surgery, my 1st thought wasn’t the procedure. It was the fear of being handed opioids again with no real choice. After my last surgery, opioids were the only option I had, my insurance didn’t cover the non-opioid alternatives I specifically asked for. That showed me how quickly exposure can happen. Many people don’t realize that about 1 in 10 patients who receive opioids after surgery will struggle with long-term use. That’s nearly 4 million people per year. It’s no secret that opioids can lead to addiction, & we should be much louder about the fact that there are non opioid options that can be used during surgery to manage pain afterwards. 
Medicare already recognizes this & separately reimburses for FDA-approved non-opioid pain treatments, proving these options are real & available. Yet insurance barriers often make them difficult or impossible to access. Instead of making decisions about my recovery with my doctor, insurance policy made them for me. As I prepare for my next surgery, I want access to every option that reduces my exposure. I know how easily things can escalate. I’ve seen opioid use continue far longer than intended. It can tear apart families before anyone realizes what’s happening. What starts as short-term pain management after surgery becomes something no one ever expected, simply because safer options were never offered. It’s frustrating that some major insurers still haven’t expanded coverage the way Medicare has. #UnitedHealthcare is one of the companies whose restrictions make it harder to access FDA-approved non-opioid surgical pain options. Because of their size, these decisions affect millions. Surgery shouldn’t be a gateway to opioid addiction. Medicare covers these options. UnitedHealthcare & others need to do the same so patients aren’t pushed toward opioids by outdated policies. Patients & families deserve better.
