This is your life, are you who you wanna be?

Sep 21, 2004 01:09

Well, lately I've been stressed out beyond belief. No matter what I do, I can't get rid of the frustrations or the stress. I know this is college, and its tough. But its just wow. Lots of other things as well. I don't feel organized or prepared for anything. I also feel like I'm not getting out enough and not opening myself up to new experiences, and I'm noticing how little things are beginning to affect me. Hopefully going home this weekend and getting things somewhat organized in my life will help.

I have also been listening to my Switchfoot CD a lot, after BASIC last week. And I stumbled upon the song, This is Your Life, and even though I've heard this song a million times before, as I sit here now and listen to the lyrics it all seems to just fit my life right now. Actually lyrics to a lot of their songs do. So I'm gonna post a few of my favorite lyrics from Switchfoot.

"yesterday is a promise that you've broken, don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes,this is your life and today is all you've got now" - This is Your Life

"This is your life, are you who you wanna be? This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be when the world was younger and you had everything to lose" - This is Your Life

"Hello, good morning, how you do? What makes your rising sun so new?
I could use a fresh beginning too. All of my regrets are nothing new"- Learning to Breathe

"But everything inside you knows, Says more than what you've heard, So much more than empty conversations Filled with empty words"- On Fire

"She believes in living bigger than she's living nowbut her world keeps spinning backwards and upsidedown. Don't say so long in the cellphone, don't spend today away cuz today will soon be gone, like yesterday is gone,
like history is gone, just trying to prove me wrong and pretend like your immortal"- Gone

"When I wake in the morning, I wanna blow into pieces, I want more than just ok."

"When I'm up with the sunrise, I want more than just the blue skies, I want more than just ok"

"Not giving up, not giving up, not backing down. More than fine. More than bent on getting by, more than fine, more than just ok." -More Than Just Okay
