“I found that when you start thinking and saying what you really want then your mind automatically shifts and pulls you in that direction. And sometimes it can be that simple, just a little twist in vocabulary that illustrates your attitude and philosophy.”
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next.
This is my new life motto. Each day I`m trying to focus on the now. It`s not about what happened yesterday, a month ago, 2 years ago... or even in your childhood. It`s not real. It`s not about your future, tomorrow, next year, 5 years from now. That time doesn`t exist yet. Now is all we have. So, if you can`t be happy now, when will you be? How will you be? Are you placing conditions on your happiness? What if tomorrow never comes? What if you never win the lotto, have that baby, buy that house, get that job, marry that guy.... does that mean you will never be happy?
Can you find a way to be happy today? Can you live for today? Can you live for right now... can you find a way to let peace in your heart...right now? What are you waiting for?
Almost made you love me Almost made you cry Almost made you happy, baby Didn't I didn't I You almost had me thinkin' You were turned around But everybody knows Almost doesn't count
Almost heard you saying You were finally free What was always missing for you, baby You'd found it in me But you can't get to heaven Half off the ground Everybody knows Almost doesn't count
I can't keep on lovin' you One foot outside the door I hear a funny hesitation Of a heart that's never really sure Can't keep on tryin' If you're looking for more Than all that I could give you Than what you came here for
Gonna find me somebody Not afraid to let go Want a no doubt be there kind of man You came real close But every time you built me up You only let me down And everybody knows Almost doesn't count
Maybe you'll be sorry Maybe you'll be cold Maybe you'll come runnin' back, baby From the cruel cruel world Almost convince me You're gonna stick around But everybody knows Almost doesn't count
So maybe I'll be here Maybe I'll see ya around That's the way it goes Almost doesn't count
“To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go”

After all of the times that we tried, I found out we were living a lie And after all of this love that we made, I Know Now you don't love me the same
The way that I love The way that I love The way that I love
I woke up kinda early today, and something told me from that moment it wouldn't be the same Felt like you were hidin' something, but I didn't push it, I didn't complain or say nothing I tried to act like I didn't see it, 'cause deep down I know I didn't wanna believe it There it was, it was you and her, you left your sidekick on the night stand and I read
Everything you did and everything you said, now I'm standin' here lookin' like damn I thought it was you and I, now all I gotta say is why
The way that I love
I noticed now that when I'm around, you be tryin' to lock the door, whispering on the phone Now wait a minute, since we been in this house you ain't never did this before, tell me what's this about.. (What's this about) I tried to sit and say to myself, this here is too good, he don't want nothin' else
There it was, it was you and her, you left the credit card receipt inside the beamer with
Everything you bought And everything you spent, now I'm standing here once again I thought it was you and I, now all I have to say is why
The way that I love
Oh Oh You lied You lied Oh why Why Yes Why'd you have to lie to me Why'd you have to lie to me Why'd you have to lie to me Why, why, why, why You lied, you lied, you lied We made, we made, we made Oh
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. ~Anatole France
I only put up song lyrics WHEN and IF they really mean something to me....
This song means a lot to me:
You're Gone Lyrics
I said hello I think I'm broken And though I was only jokin' It took me by surprise when you agreed I was tryin' to be clever For the life of me I never Would have guessed how far the simple truth would lead You knew all my lines You knew all my tricks You knew how to heal that pain No medicine can fix
And I bless the day I met you And I thank God that He let you Lay beside me for a moment that lives on And the good news is I'm better For the time we spent together And the bad news is you're gone
Lookin' back it's still surprisin' I was sinking you were rising With a look you caught me in mid-air Now I know God has His reasons But sometimes it's hard to see them When I awake and find that you're not there You found hope in hopeless You made crazy sane You became the missing link That helped me break my chains
And I bless the day I met you And I thank God that He let you Lay beside me for a moment that lives on And the good news is I'm better For the time we spent together And the bad news is you're gone The bad news is you're gone
“I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.” - Hellen Keller
It is almost a miracle that modern teaching methods have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry; for what this delicate little plant needs more than anything, besides stimulation, is freedom.
