Happy 2011!!! There is nothing like the feeling of a fresh, brand new year! As Anne says, "A new day, with no mistakes in it." One thing I love about the new 365 days, is the chance to make things right. I believe God has given every individual a life, and with that life a way to make a difference, and with a new year, a chance to be better. I was day dreaming, and I thought how special we all are. We've been given a single life-time, a moment in history--to, for lack of a better phrase, "BE." I get to leave my mark on the world! Whether it is a beautiful, colorful mark, or a dark one...it is ultimately in my hands. I feel as though I have fresh eyes when a new year starts. I can honestly look at where I'm at, where I've been, and where I want to go. My family sat down the other night and we all wrote down three of our goals. We shared them and prayed together. I never take a moment like that for granted. I'm ready to begin on another blissful dawn & day. I believe the best is yet to come. You have the opportunity to be all you want to be, if you dream, and if you work. Never give up, you have one life...and even that goes too fast. Too fast for us to take time to hate, hurt, or hold on to the past. It's just enough time though, to Love. Sorry if this turned into more of a diary entry. :) But it is raw from my mind and heart. I hope your year will be filled with lovely surprises, advancements in your journey, and motivation to lead the life you were meant to live. I'm going to end with lyrics to a wonderful song by The Script...Chase down those dreams, don't take a moment for granted. I believe in You! Xoxo
Gotta start
Lookin at the hands of the time we've been given it
This is all we got and we gotta start pickin it
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'
Gotta live like we're dying
We only got86, 400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or to throw it all away
We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em
While we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying
And if your plane fell out of the sky
Who would you call with your last goodbye
Should be careful who we let fall out of our lives
So when we long for absolution
There'll no one on the line
Gotta start
Lookin at the hands of the time we've been given it
This is all we got and we gotta start pickin it
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'
Gotta live like we're dying
We only got86, 400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em
While we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying
