Unwritten

So, while driving to work this morning I heard this incredible song on the radio. It's one of those songs that as you're listening just really touches where you're at. It goes along with the T.S. Elliot quote I had in a previous post, What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from. So I hope that while reading the lyrics of this song it touches a chord in you. It's also interesting because it can really relate to my Religion post from yesterday.

I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined

I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you

Open up the dirty window

Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance

So close you can almost taste it

Release your inhibitions

Feel the rain on your skin

No one else can feel it for you

Only you can let it in

No one else, no one else

Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken

Live your life with arms wide open

Today is where your book begins

The rest is still unwritten

Oh, oh, oh

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines

We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you

Open up the dirty window

Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance

So close you can almost taste it

Release your inhibitions

Feel the rain on your skin

No one else can feel it for you

Only you can let it in

No one else, no one else

Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken

Live your life with arms wide open

The song really touched me in the moment, hey now no dirty thoughts inserted here please, Shannon or Damon!!

Anyways, on a lighter note. I just got my braces off so yesterday I had to start the whole retainer process. My ortho says that because my teeth were really messed up that I should wear them almost religiously for a year (funny play on words huh?). Anyhow, so I had to ride the bus this morning and one of the kids would not sit down, so with my retainers and all I say, "If you shon't shit down, I'm gonna shrow you off sha bus." At that moment in time all the kids stop and look at me and then begin laughing, of course inserting their own little lisps here and there. It was quite humorous. Anyhow, that's life. I must go and try to make some insignificant change in the kids I work with by facilitating my groups. So TA TA for now.
