Love is for me

Love is for me
Love is for you
Love is for all

I've been through faces 
Not always perfect
I've cried like crazy
Not always chasing pavements

I know that I'm facing
A new type of obstacle
but I stand convinced that
A new day awaits me

Love is for me
I am happy to receive
the sun that smiles to me
Love is for me
I am willing to start
all over again 

there are no more laments
or sorrows nor shadows
over me
the things that I feared
are not in my way
they have gone with the past
they're not active
they have been burried
and they should stay there forever
the only thing I see is the future
coming to reclaim my freedom
the things that await me
are far more greater that the ones
behind me
because I receive love 
and love is for me

Dando Gracias


Bueno, por estos lados se celebra el día de Acción de Gracias, Thanksgiving y aunque siempre estoy agradecido, quiero aprovechar la oportunidad para dar gracias!

Gracias: 

  • Dios por todo, las cosas buenas y las que a veces no entiendo... por guardar mi sanidad en todos los sentidos, por abrazarme cuando más lo necesito, por hacerme saber que está cerca todos los días, por reorganizar mi vida y darme aliento para seguir, no matter what!
  • Por mi querida familia que me ha demostrado tanto amor y cariño, que es imposible enumerar las bendiciones que recibo a través de sus vidas.
  • El regalo de la música, el cual me llena de energía, mi medicina, mi mejor amiga, la cual me ha abierto los ojos a tantas cosas y me ha llevado a lugares que nunca pensé explorar.
  • A mis amigos, los que están cuando llueve y cuando está el solazo en su buena!

A Simple "Hey"


I'm appalled
Astonished
Tonight...
A simple "hey"
Shook me all over again
Just when I thought I walked away
Out of reach
Your words couldn't touch me
But something has to stay
A part of you resists to walk away
To my surprise
I was not unreachable
When the it popped in my screen
A simple "Hey"

Unannounced

We always anticipate things and constantly plan things ahead of time, but we're not always ready for them. I just read that "the future has a way of arriving unannounced," and always will. I believe that as we search for the things that make us happy and make us who we really are, we will be ready for the surprises, or at least we will embrace and recognize them when they arrive.

Right to Dream


Para todo aquel que se atreve a soñar y cree que los sueños se pueden realizar, aquí les va esta canción:



RIGHT TO DREAM
[Written by Mariah Carey, Willie Nelson]

I lay awake sometimes
Scared to close my eyes
And I wonder where I left myself
I lost the will to fly

And the night melts into morning
Still it's cold beneath the sun
'Cause the fire in me's languishing
And I'm too frozen to run

Every once in a while
There's a distant glimmer of hope
I find
Somewhere deep inside
Someone strong still resides
And I know she's gonna be fine
In time
'Cause you see
I've got a lot to dream
There's more than this for me

An angel lands with broken wings
Warms me with his eyes
And the ice that sheaths around my heart
Unravel as he smiles

See I grew up locked in sorrow
So I learned to block the pain
But I won't give up tomorrow
'Cause I've come to life again

Every once in a while
There's a distant glimmer of hope
I find
Somewhere deep inside
Someone strong still resides
And I know I'm gonna be fine
That's right
'Cause for real
I've got a right to dream
There's more than this for me

But I keep on going 'cause

Every once in a while
There's a distant glimmer of hope
I find
Somewhere deep inside
Someone strong still resides
And I know she's gonna be fine
In time
'Cause you see
I've got a right to dream
There's more than this for me
