My Life in Someecards

This is your life...

This is the moment
It’s on the line
Which way you gonna fall?
In the middle between
Wrong and right
But you know after all

(Chorus)
It’s your life
What you gonna do?
The world is watching you
Every day the choices you make
Say what you are and who
Your heart beats for
It’s an open door
It’s your life

Are you who you always said you would be?
With a sinking feeling in your chest
Always waiting for someone else to fix you
Tell me when did you forget

(Chorus)

To live the way that you believe
This is your opportunity
To let your life be one that lights the way

If life is a highway, why can't I drive?

How does one develop a passion in life? You know, that drive that pushes you to be better then you are.

The reason I ask is b/c I’ve decided that I have none. Yep. No drive. No passion. No desire to better myself. It’s kind of depressing actually. I find myself talking about all of these great things I want to do and all these changes I want to make and then when it comes to following through with these amazing plans…I choke. I just don’t care enough to actually get off my lazy butt and make something happen. Then, I actually have the nerve to talk about how crappy my life is.

So this brings me back to my initial question. How do I get the drive? That self-motivation to be a better person.

I guess I’ll just sit here, do nothing and think about it some more…that seems to be the theme of my life lately.

Have you ever noticed that if one area of our life is going bad, automatically "my life sucks."

Why is it easier to focus on the one bad thing instead of all the amazing things that we are blessed with?

But lately, it seems that there is alot more than one thing going bad in this girl's life. When do I get to complain? Or do I? When I sit back and take a look at my life, the little good things probably still outnumber the bad, but when the bad things are so big it makes it alot harder to shift the focus to the good.


Everyone waits for a knock on the door
Waiting for someone,
who knows what it's for
Cause we spend a lot of money
Feeling bad and looking fine
I'll try to sum it up in a few simple lines

Oh darling,
life is what you pray for
But love is what you stay for
And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be
But you didn't hear that from me

Everyone says that it's covered in pain
Waiting for someone who will take on the blame
Oh it takes a lot of courage
To know you're not alone
The sooner you stand up, the sooner you'll know

Oh baby, life is what you pray for
But love is what you stay for
And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be
But you didn't hear that from me

When I hear you crying at night
Like the world is on your shoulders
I'll hold you tight
Cause I know a secret or two
And the least I can do is share it with you

Share it with you
Share it baby

Oh, life is what you pray for
Love is what you stay for
And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be
But you didn't hear that from me
Life is what you pray for

You didn't hear that from meLove is what you stay for
You didn't hear that from meLife is what you pray for
You didn't hear that from me

life.

When is it time to move on? move forward? or do we just wait? When you get to a point of complete frusturation and you know you have more to offer the world than what you've been doing, what are you supposed to do? Yea I know, the obvious answer is to pray for direction. My whole life has been praying for direction. I know it has gotten me this far, but lately it's gotten to a point where this wall I keep running into will not fall down. I'm stuck, and honestly, my shoulder is starting to hurt...

In life, how does one distinguish between waiting on God for direction and just settling for mediocrity?
