Ten Times

It is no exageration that I've started this blog entry 10 times. I went to begin it yesterday when I was in Richmond before I returned back to Lexington, and then last night I tried to write it before I went to bed. But I honestly don't know what to say, and I know the longer I go without writing here the longer it will take me to work myself back to this place again. So instead of my own feelings, I will share lyrics and lines that have made my heart hurt, happy, inspired, hopeful, encouraged, and most of all known.

"Cause I'll stand back up,

And you'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up." -sugarland

"You are fragile and afraid, walking a tight rope you try not to sway,

Let the healing begin... wash over you." -ten shekel shirt

"I think you are waiting to hear that its OK to say goodbye.

Would you say it, if this wasn't about you?" -priceless wisdom

"My view of what we've built, created, worked for, and sustained is defined more by the endless sunny day... and the plans for the next sand castle." -to a friend

"You are not alone. For I am here with you..." -Michael Jackson *thanks to American Idol

"Take this sinking boat and point it home... we've still got time...

Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice, you made it now...

Eyes that know me and I can't go back." -once

"These could all be in a book." -Regi, my instructor

"The struggles I'm facing,
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it, but these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most..." -miley cyrus

"When you are ready, whether it's in a month or in twenty years, we will move past it and rejoice in having each other in our lives again." -Boo's.

"what do I have to do to keep you from doing this to me?

I wrote a couple of notes. One in love and one in anger.

They're lying there dying in the dresser drawer" -sugarland

"I want to see it. Heaven come to Earth.

Can you see it? Can you see?

Heaven come to earth.

Fountain of peace-all can drink,

find relief from the suffering.

And healing leaves, falling free,

all for the hearts of the suffering.

The Mountain peak, all can reach,

finally free from the suffering.

Like our dreams- we can fly... far away from the suffering." -tss

"So plant the thought and watch it grow. Wind it up and watch it go." -once

"Prone to wander, Lord I feel it... Prone to leave the God I love. 

Here's my heart, Lord take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above" -favorite hymn
