Is there something inside me that I don't see?

I've been doing some soul searching these last few weeks-- Thinking. Reflecting. Discussing. Contemplating. Laughing. Crying. You name it.

Something is missing. Or maybe it's some things are missing. Plural, definitely plural. Back in the winter I began to feel as I had a clean slate. A new beginning or a fresh start. It was time to go after those things that I truly wanted to ensure my own self happiness.

Well, it's time. No more wasting time. I've been learning to let the little things go that I can't control. There will be things that we will always have to let go of and move on from. I always want to please everyone. That's just something that will always be in me. But it's time to be a little selfish.

While I sit here and write how it's time to go after everything I've dreamt of or wanted-- some things I can't even begin to put my finger on. What do I want?? Problem.

I know I miss this:


As for whatever else, it continues to be a mystery to me. It's just something I feel and I'm going to figure it out.

The beats to my life...

I just wanted to share some lyrics from a few songs. These words fit where I'm at right now and how I feel.

Butterflies in my stomach
And my feet off the ground
- - -
All I know is that you're so nice
You're the nicest thing I've seen

- - -
The waves crash fown upon this windswept beach
The driftwood lays there as a symbol of defeat
Here I sit with my life laid out before me
Will I rise or be trampled by the storm
You must take control and let this go
Flush your mind of doubt and don't be destroyed
Fly as fast as you can and be set free
- - -
When I wake up in the mornin' light
I pull on my jeans and I feel alright
I pull my blue jeans on, I pull my old blue jeans on
I pull my blue jeans on, I pull my old blue jeans on
- - -
We'd never have to wonder...
- - -
Slow to trust but I'm quick to love
Push too hard and I give too much
I ain't sayin' I'm perfect
But I promise I'm worth it
- - -
I don't know you but I want you
All the more for that
- - -
If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
I'd make you believe
And make you forget
