Shine

I think you need to stop following misery's lead



you've only begun to shine...

It was a great day of iPod selections. There was John Prine's Fish and Whistle... there was G Love's Peace, Love, and Happiness but this one struck me. I am an Anna Nalick fan. Not a huge fan... just haven't been exposed to that much of her. I have some tunes because I liked Breathe but usually I skip over it. Not today...

and what a lucky break for me. This is now my new favorite AN song. Very positive and very fitting for my mood of late. I'm trying my best to change my outlook on life and to become a positive person. I believe we all know right from wrong and we all have the power to be happy. We choose to ignore it, maybe because it's too hard or because of past fears, but bottom line... you know what to do, so do it. You know what's been holding you back. You know the bad choices you made.

I'm reading a book that makes a good point. The mess you're in right now is not for something that's happening to you, it's the result of a bad decision in the past. You have the CHOICE of what to do next!

Enough soapbox...
