How are you?
Is it just another day
Another way to hide your face
And hope that they don't find you?
Where are you?
Are you going to make a move
Or take a step,
Or leave a mark
Create a legacy or two?
Come on you
Got to act now,
got to move now,
got to go
Come on you knowit's time for you to glow
Don't you wait, don't you wait.
Are you where you want to be?
Are you where you want to be?
Don't you think, don't you think?
You could open up and see.
Are you where you want to be?
How are you?
Are you living for today?
Forget the yesterdays andyesterways that confine you.
Come on you know
Somebody's on your side
You and I will learn to fly
It's what we were meant to do
It's a new day
There is a way to make it through
These are lyrics that I love. They talk about leaving the things that hurt you in your past and go on with your life. Some people have trouble doing this. They despretly cling to their old lives and habits, but they are sinking deeper and deeper into a void that they can never be pulled from. it is hard for people to leave all they know, trusting blindly that the new normal will be better
This is something I had so much trouble doing when I moved to Morristown. I was afraid that if I let my deathhold on my plush Lawrenceville life I would never see it again. I didn't want to let myself grow attatched to this place. All I wanted was that sense of normallcy I had in L'Ville. Oh boyy, i was missing a lot.
I didn't see the spot people had cleared for me in their hearts, because I refused to see it, turned a blind eye to the world. I didn't see the wonderful youth group God had prepared for me, nor did I see the friends God had placed in my path. I didn't know bag boy at Ingle's who always waas kind to me and would scan hisown card for me would soon be my friend, I didn't know the youth intern would soon hold a special place in my heart. Now I love it here. fellowship is everyones number one priority, and God is so active here. No, it is nothing like L'Ville, nor will it ever be, nor canit compete with 12stone. but that is howlife is. imperfect, but perfect
I think Lawrenceville, Georgia will always be my true home, andone day I will return for good, but for now, I am quite content tobe here,
in my new normal.
