risky business
I don't get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns
The stumbles and falls
Brought me here
And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it every day
And I know
That I am... I am
I am the luckiest...
I never thought I'd ever be able to listen to this song again. I never believed I'd ever be able to associate new memories or new love to it. At one point in life, I thought I knew what love was. I thought I understood the magnitude of these lyrics. I now know that I was completely wrong. I have never been happier to be wrong in my life. It's strange...the song randomly came on the other day...and it was like everything that I had been pondering and thinking about finally clicked. I realized I had to do something...or else I would always regret never taking the chance. So...I gave up something to get something. I made a big choice. I took a big chance. While it makes me anxious, I don't regret it. I know that the anxiety caused by this choice will be difficult for a little while, but that it is worth it in the long run. I'm surprising myself with my ability to change and take chances. Some things are worth risking bits and pieces for. I'm starting to learn that if one never risks anything, one never is rewarded. So...here I am. I don't get many things right the first time, but when I am given a second chance...
