I hope you dance.

Listening to this song it occured to me how much I just really like it.. not because it's a good song.. well it is but because of the lyrics. Some of the stuff hits home to how I feel. I'll break it down.

- I never wanted to take any of the days I have on this earth for granted. I may get lazy but I want to live each day like it could possibly be my last. I don't want to regret.

- I want to know who I am in this world. The ocean is huge.. I am small but that doesn't mean I will not let it defeat me in any of the travels I hope to make some day. I'll never be afraid to venture across any of them.

- Whenever one door closes one more will open. There are possibilities around every corner. Nothing in this life is a given. There will be the things I want and the things I get. Only a handfull of times will those piles ever actually match up and I want to cherish those times and the rest strive to reach the next.

- I want to dance. I want to sing. I want to laugh. I want to live my dreams. No matter how long it takes. I don't care if I try til my dying day and still never make it. I want to be able to look back at my life and know that I didn't waste it. I don't want to give up on the things that are hard. Harder things are most likely worth more then the easier ones.

- I'll never settle for the path of least resistance. I never want to settle at all.

- I want to take the chances. I want to take the risks and I want to make damn sure no matter the outcome I'll be just as ready to take the next when it comes along.

- I never want to sellout. I will not change myself for anyone. If my friends and family can not except who I am I will not alter myself for them. But at the same time I will never push them away. I'll simply to agree to disagree.

- I may be agnostic but someday I want to find out the truth. I'll never be a religious person or antireligious either. But I'd like to know a bit more about what I'm unsure of.

and under no conditions do I want to look back over my years and be disappointed in myself. I am the one true person I am responsible for making happy. I will not fail in that mission. There is no such thing as failure.

I want to look back and know I did everything I could to be the person I know I really am.
