haha i was gonna post something... but instead i'll post something else.
ok... as most of you know... one of my favorite bands is U2... and i especially like some songs by them--- beautiful day, all that you can't leave behind, and grace would be the most notable ones... so i've been listening to beautiful day A LOT lately... and i love some lines--- especially..
...See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day ....
What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day
ok... so this is the good week. after rough times come good times. and i was reminded, it's supposed to be a beautiful day everyday. where's my hope? in God. where am I going? to Heaven (my last destination).... so i shouldn't worry or get upset about the menial little nit-picky things i do. i'm wasting wonderful time. AND if i am indeed feeling down, i can look for the everday beauty or beauty in my memories or imagination
(...See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light )
and i can hope and wait for the colors that come out after the storm...
oh how i love the calm and fresh feeling after a storm, when the sun comes out and there's this gorgeous bright rainbow, magnificent and beautiful. and storms are never eternal. a storm has to cease at one point or another, ya know?... wait for the calm and peace after it!
ah how rich and how beautiful is this life! sure, we all have sucky seasons, but the good seasons are always worth the sucky ones... :-P and all you need to be happy today, is what you have in your hand. stop chasing after what you don't have, be content with what you do have! :)
carpe diem in Deus
