I'm Singing My Song

by BeautyFromAshes

Rated: 18+ · Book · Personal · #1291596

Sing it if you understand...

2Am and I'm still awake writing a song
If I get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me
threaten' the life it belongs to.

And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary screamin' out aloud
And I know that you'll use them however you want to.

But you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand...and breath... ~ Anna Nalick

** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

This blaze was destined for you to be refined
My plans for you this battle I had to require
Even though, the fire is known to leave ashes behind
These ashes will leave in you a God-Given Fire...

This woman prays...

** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

~ Isaiah 61:3

To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion
to give unto them Beauty for Ashes
the oil of joy for mourning
the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness
that they might be called trees of righteousness
the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

I know what you mean about thinking that we have things figured out, only to be disappointed by the fact that we really don't. It's like a way of life for me...

Now, please pass the cake!

Start a business...why not? Every locality deserves a talented local 'round-the-corner bakery. That'd be so cool. Wish I could parlay a talent into a business, but rhyme doesn't pay.

Those spots...we all have 'em. They know us more than we do and even better than we know them. Things are turning out for you! Safe travels, safe return.

Well I don't shift gears as smoothly as I should. Once a plan is made in one direction and it has to change - it sometimes takes me a while to get back on track.

But sounds like you did this shift really well - good for you. I think this will be better anyway. You don't have to leave Meow - so she will be very very happy!

Sleep in tomorrow for goodness sakes and enjoy your next few days off.

I absolutely loved "On a Wing and a Prayer." I agree with the sentiment, because it implies not only letting go to a higher power, trusting in it, but trusting in yourself as well. The bird could not soar if it did not stick it's wings out and let the wind currents carry it. Plus, there are subtle shifts of it's feathers that capture the higher power and allow it to soar, dip, and swoop to a greater extent.

It reminds me of one of my favorite sayings: "Pray, but row away from the rocks." To me this means there is a symbiosis between ourselves and a higher power. Each has to work together--neither one can be neglected.

Excellent entry.

Whew! What a day!

There's some numbers I keep in my phone anyway even though I know I'll never call them...it's more so to know what numbers to ignore in case they ever call me.

I love finding bargains too, but just not in 105 degree hot weather. Glad you had so much energy to get things done.
