QUOTE OF THE NOW

"Our life evokes our character. You find out more about yourself as you go on. That's why it's good to be able to put yourself in situations that will evoke your higher nature rather than your lower. 'Lead us not into temptation.'" Joseph Campbell

Singalong song!



God forgive my mind



I think it's time we found a way back home
You loose so many things you love as you grow
I missed the days when I was just a kid
My fear became my shadow, I swear it did

Wherever is your heart I call home
Wherever is your heart I call home
Though your feet may take you far from me, I know
Wherever is your heart I call home

You made me feel like I was always falling
Always falling down without a place to land
Somewhere in the distance I heard you calling
Oh it hurts so bad to let go of your hand

Wherever is your heart I call home
Wherever is your heart I call home
Though your feet may take you far from me, I know
Wherever is your heart I call home

Even when you're high, you can get low
Even with your friends you love, you're still alone
We always find the darkest place to go
God forgive our minds, we were born to roam

Wherever is your heart I call home
Wherever is your heart I call home
Though your feet may take you far from me, I know
Wherever is your heart I call home

Oh God forgive my mind, oh God forgive my mind
When I come home, when I come home
Oh God forgive my mind
There's a road that's long and winding, it hollers home
I'm calling home

All the things I did just to be seen

Seems like a more honest/personal song than Madonna usually comes out with.



I lived my life like a masochist
Hearing my father say: "Told you so, told you so.
Why can't you be like the other girls?"
I said: "Oh no, that's not me and I don't think that it'll ever be."

Thought I belong to a different tribe
Walking alone never satisfied, satisfied
Tried to fit in but it wasn't me,
I said: "Oh no, I want more. That's not what I'm looking for."

So I took the road less traveled by
And I barely made it out alive
Through the darkness somehow I survived
Tough love - I knew it from the start
Deep down in the depth of my rebel heart

I've spent some time as a narcissist
Hearing the other say: "Look at you, look at you
Trying to be so provocative."
I said: "Oh yeah, that was me.
All the things I did just to be seen."

Outgrown my past and I've shed my skin
Letting it go and I'll start again, start again
Never look back, it's a waste of time
I said: "Oh yeah, this is me
And I'm right here where I wanna be."

I said: "Hell yeah! This is me
Right where I'm supposed to be"

So I took the road less travelled by
And I barely made it out alive
Through the darkness somehow I survived
Tough love - I knew it from the start
Deep down in my rebel heart

So I took the road less travelled by
And I barely made it out alive
Through the darkness somehow I survived
Tough love - I knew it from the start
Deep down in the depth of my rebel heart

In my rebel heart
In my rebel heart
