The Tide

A wise woman once told me, "There are few things certain in this life. One certainty is the tide. As you stand on the shore, the tide will come in and go out. Are you standing there watching it go by or are you swimming it to get to where you want to be?" How profound? So, on that note... one of my favorite Incubus songs; Drive.

DRIVE by Incubus

Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
And I can't help but ask myself how much I let the fear
Take the wheel and steer
It's driven me before
And it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal
But lately I'm beginning to find that I
Should be the one behind the wheel

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
I'll be there

So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive
Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive?
It's driven me before
And it seems to be the way that everyone else gets around
But lately I'm beginning to find that
When I drive myself my light is found

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
I'll be there

Would you choose water over wine
Hold the wheel and drive

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
I'll be there

I feel that there will be more blogs like my most recent coming in the next few days/weeks. I'm in a healing process and music is my way of healing. Sad, happy, angry... who knows where the emotions will take me musically, but I'm just gonna go with it. Here is what I feel I need right now: Lift Me Up By Kate Voegele This road is anything but simple Twisted like a riddle I've seen high and I've seen low So loud, the voices of all my doubts Telling me to give up, to pack up and leave town Even so, I had to believe Impossible means nothing to me, yeah So can you lift me up, Turn the ashes into flames ‘Cause I have overcome More than words will ever say And I've been given hope That there's a light on up the hall And that a day will come When the fight is won And I think that day has just begun Somewhere, every body starts there I'm counting on a small prayer, Lost in a nightmare But I'm here, and suddenly it's so clear Th...

Ever had one of those days...

When nothing makes sense? When you can't seem to do anything right? When you feel things slipping away? When all you need to do is make some hot cocoa, curl up on the couch with your girlfriends, and watch funny movies and just laugh the day away as if it doesn't exist? When you feel restless? Like you're barely getting by in your life? Like you're suffocating just sitting still? Like if you could just get outta here you could breathe? Like you're not alive at all? When you strike out again? When you continue to fight for something that doesn't seem to fight back for you? When your energy and strength has been completely depleted and you have no fight left in you? Where you feel like you've lost all hope that it will happen for you? Today feels like that day.

A Depiction of an Aquarius

A friend of mine sent me a link to an astrology website.  Now, I do not believe in astrology, but I do find it incredibly coincidental.  I began reading the breakdown and was taken aback by how close in description is really is to who I am.  It's not a perfect depiction, but it's the closest I've seen ever. Aquarius Strength Keywords: (All of these are true) - Witty - Clever - Humanitarian - Inventive - Original Aquarius Weakness Keywords: (All of these are true) - Stubborn - Unemotional - Sarcastic - Rebellious - Aloof Aquarius and Independence: Aquarius personality is very independent, any attempt to hold them down or restrict them will cause them, to flee. They need to be free to be on their own. Independence is not just desired by Aquarius, it is essential to their well being. Aquarius and Friendship: Beneath the detached, unemotional exterior lies a kind hearted friend that will go out of their way to help another. They love to make people la...
