So Much in a Song

well I'm going to take a lesson from Lindsay and Kyla and putting a song in a blog. Actually how it started was I was talking with Lindsay about how she has such insight to a song, usually when I hear a song, I just think: "oh, I like this" But driving home from school today that's not what happened. I actually felt something from this song, I understood what she was singing about and all I wanted to do was sing just along with her.

I've been tellin' my dreams to the scarecrow

'Bout the places that I'd like to see

I said, friend do you think I'll ever get there

Ah, but he just stands there smilin' back at me

So I confessed my sins to the preacher

About the love I've been prayin' to find

Is there a brown eye'd boy in my future, yeah

He says. girl you've got nothin' but time

But how do you wait for heaven

And who has that much time

And how do you keep your feet on the ground

When you know, that you were born, you were born to fly

My daddy, he's grounded like the oak tree

My momma, she is steady as the sun

Oh you know I love my folks

But I keep starin' down the road

Just lookin' for my one chance to run

Yeah, 'cause I will soar away like the blackbird

I will blow in the wind like a sea

I will plant my heart in the garden of my dreams

And I will grow up where I'll wander wild and free

Oh, how do you wait for heaven

And who has that much time

And how do you keep your feet on the ground

When you know, that you were born

You were born yeahYou were born to fly

So how do you wait for heaven

And who has that much time

And how do you keep your feet on the ground

When you know that you were born

You were born to fly fly fly fly

Yeah, now why it really hit me. Lately I've been finding that I'm yearning to grow up, to pursue my dreams. I might be cause I'm in Pediatrics right now, and I absolutely love it. It makes me realize the purpose in my life, why I chose nursing. so it reiterates my dreams being just aroinf the corner.

And you know the verse about the parents, well that's me, I love my parents, I love them both ever so much. BUT...I want to be on my own, I want to be making my own descisions, deciding when things need to be done, deciding my own descisions without consulting with anyone. I know I have my car, and I have a whole lot of freedom, considering I can come it at 3 am and have my parents not say anything is impressive. IT's just not the same though as living on your own, living your dream. I find I'm just like this girl...my head is in the clouds cause I was born to FLY!!
