Reaching for the sky

The past few months have been difficult for me to say the least. Struggling with the economy, wondering about my job security, and the dangers of both affecting my family. I have felt beaten down and dragged through the mud. But I think I have turned a corner, I made a vow to bring about change and it feels so good to be back in control of my destiny, instead of letting destiny control me. So for today, I am choosing Eagles Fly by Sammy Hagar as my song of the day.

" Now I'm alive, I can breathe the air
feel the wind, smell the Earth in the air.
I watch an eagle rise above the trees,
project myself into what he sees.

Hey, take me away
Come on and fly me away,
Take me up so high
Where eagles fly"

It is a great feeling to cast aside the fears and doubts that you have and just live. Trust in yourself and your power to get where you want to go. My childhood was marred by both fear and doubt and it really held me back. This pattern followed me into adulthood, but no more. I am taking control of my universe back. That way, sink or swim, it is on me, and no regrets!

"I often dream I sail through the sky
I've always wished I could fly.
The simple life of a bird on a wing
Oh Lord, I can sing."

It's time for me to sing again....
