Unwritten

I took this Facebook Quiz a while back called Which Song Defines Your Life. Now, normally I do not think these things are very accurate however, sometimes they are right on. Today, I decided to look up the lyrics to the song that came up for me. It is totally me.

All I want to say is that I find it very odd when people think they can live my life better than me. It would be nice if everyone kept their opinions to themselves since they are just opinions. I have seen members of my family and some of my friends over come some stressful situations and come out on top...despite what others thought. I believe in leaving the judgement up to God since he is the one who matters. Everything happens for a reason and not everyone has to like it or agree with it. My advice....hang around those who support you and the decisions you make. Those who have to put in their two sense are not worth your time. You are the only one who can live your life and make the decisions for it. Trust yourself and your angels to guide you in the right direction. We all need to learn life lessons and learn to be strong. I know how hard it is to not try to please everyone...I have been doing that my entire life. We all know that if you are not happy....you cannot make those around you happy. I know that I have no regrets from my past and that my future is going to be wonderful!

"Unwritten"

I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, oh, oh

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, yeah, yeah

Today I am thankful for:
my friends
support
my strength and courage
life lessons
a day at the beach yesterday
knowing that words are just words and I can allow them to hurt me or go in one ear and out the other (one guess what my choice is..LOL!)
my children
the yellow rose in my garden
the butterfly that was fluttering around in my yard this morning
nature
beautiful signs from above
Makenna having a blast in the sand and the ocean. I love that she is fearless and outdoorsy like me.
Melinda, Marty, Josh and Alyssa (oh, and Toby!)
playing Wii Fit with Alyssa
singing Karaoke with Melinda's mom...so fun!
Diane
knowing that what one may look at as a mistake another will look at as a lesson
