Johnny Lang: Thankful-

Someones standing in a welfare line
Or off the freeway with a hungry sign
Someones stressing bout to lose their mind
I gotta be thankful, thankful

Someone just became a single mother
Someone just lost a sister or brother
Its so important that we love each other
And be

Thankful, thankful
Ive gotta take the time to say, that Im
Thankful, thankful
For every single breath that I take
Ive gotta be thankful, thankful

Someones sitting in a prison cell
Wasting away in their own personal hell
Everybodys got their own story to tell
Ive gotta be thankful, thankful

Man, I used to think I didnt have a lot
Now I realize just how much Ive got
Now every day Im gonna take the time and stop to be
thankful, thankful

Any one of these so easily could have been me
But if it had not been for grace and mercy who knows where Id be

Ive been riding on this roller coaster ride
Round and round Ive seen the up and downside
And Im here to tell you that the secret of life is being

Thankful

Thankful

Thoughts become words-

Words become actions-

Actions become habits-

Habits become character-

Character is everything.

I had trouble falling asleep last night.

Not because it was early.

Not because I was thinking deeply about something (trust me, after the past twelve days, I don't think I could think "deeply" about something if I tried ).

Yes, I was physically exhausted, but even so I couldn't fall asleep.

Hmm....

I guess thats what happens when you move from a place like RT. 30 to a road that is traveled on only by the people who live there.

What the world needs now

Is Love/Sweet love.

Life lately has been pretty crazy here.  Haven't really had any time for posting, let alone reading.

The apartment is nice and is a huge blessing because of it's large size compared to other apartments and I know God has a place for us... somewhere.. even though He hasn't shown it to us yet....  it's out there.....

On a different note, but on the same lines of moving, I can't find some of my stuff.  I think it might be in storage or still packed away in some box and that's frustrating to me because I don't feel like digging through an entire box to get to one thing.  I'm hesitant to unpack alot of my stuff, as we'll be moving once we find a permanant "home" and I really don't feel like unpacking just to pack all over again.  The downside to my choice not to unpack alot of my things, is in the first sentence of this paragraph, I can't find anything.

It's really weird having the sound of cars, trucks, tractor-trailers, police cars, amulances, fire trucks, motorcycles, and all the above flying by the apartment all day (not to be taken as a complaint ).  It can get annoying, but I'm adjusting.

As most know, Nicole got her license which is exciting......and scary in it's own little way...

I really don't have much more to say.
