there ain't nothing greater
It's all right letting yourself go,
as long a you can get yourself back.

can't be love
People get lost when they think of happiness as a destination. Well, we're always thinking that someday we'll be happy. Like when we get that car, or that job or that person in our lives that will fix everything. But happiness is a mood, and it's a condition, not a destination. It's like being tired or hungry, it's not permanent. It comes and goes and that's okay. And I feel like if people thought of it that way, they could find happiness a lot more often.

I'll be gone tomorrow
1-2 Listen to this prayer of mine, God; pay attention to what I'm asking.
Answer me—you're famous for your answers!
Do what's right for me.
But don't, please don't, haul me into court;
not a person alive would be acquitted there.
3-6 The enemy hunted me down;
he kicked me and stomped me within an inch of my life.
He put me in a black hole,
buried me like a corpse in that dungeon.
I sat there in despair, my spirit draining away,
my heart heavy, like lead.
I remembered the old days,
went over all you've done, pondered the ways you've worked,
Stretched out my hands to you,
as thirsty for you as a desert thirsty for rain.
7-10 Hurry with your answer, God!
I'm nearly at the end of my rope.
Don't turn away; don't ignore me!
That would be certain death.
If you wake me each morning with the sound of your loving voice,
I'll go to sleep each night trusting in you.
Point out the road I must travel;
I'm all ears, all eyes before you.
Save me from my enemies, God—
you're my only hope!
Teach me how to live to please you,
because you're my God.
Lead me by your blessed Spirit
into cleared and level pastureland.
11-12 Keep up your reputation, God—give me life!
In your justice, get me out of this trouble!
In your great love, vanquish my enemies;
make a clean sweep of those who harass me.
And why? Because I'm your servant.
Do what's right for me.
But don't, please don't, haul me into court;
not a person alive would be acquitted there.

save me from this road I'm on

run
Mia smooth down the tiny creases on her summer dress and glance at herself in the mirror one last time. Seeing that she looked decent, she picked up her handbag from the bed and left the apartment.
Five months ago, her boyfriend of three years, Danny, proposed to her.
And now, in less then three months time, it'll be her big day. She has picked the dress, ordered the flowers, booked the chapel and even their honeymoon hotel. Today, she was going to her best friend's bakery for a cake testing session with Danny.
As she sat down with her boyfriend, the waiters served them. Every cake Mia tasted was better than the one before it.
Mia looked at her boyfriend, admiring every move he made. He was perfect. She had stumbled upon many guys before this, each treating her with ultimate care. The first one loved her, but was much too afraid of the world. The second one thought she was the one and only, at the same time, couldn't let her off his side. The rest were the same as Mia tried to find Mr. Right.
Then came along Danny.
She thought about all those times, they were exactly like the cakes. The next one better than the one before, each boyfriend thought her more and more about finding the right guy. At the end, he's the perfect one, the one that you didn't expect to be the one.
Because Mia didn't think that Vanilla Love would be the perfect cake for her wedding too.
There's so much to learn before reaching your goal. All the hardships and challenges are plain lessons to carry on in life. It's a matter of whether you know how to interpret them and accept them or not.
