The Backspace Option

Well, a new page has been turned. A new chapter started. A new song has started playing. Life is good. Friends are good. God is good. Over the past few months I have seen a lot of change in my life. I think I like where this is going.

A few things have really weighed on my mind lately. Life has no backspace button. When I write, whether it be a song, story, or blog, I always have the option of using the backspace button. Mistakes can be fixed, things can be rewritten and said in a different way. Everything comes out perfect. Life cannot be backspaced. I have come to realize that I must do things right the first time in life. Priorities are crucial. My God must be worshipped and given praise. School has to be finished, and finished well. My family has to know that I love them. My friends need to know that I am there. What if I neglect my priorities? I cannot backspace. I must give everything I do my all. If I fail...I tried. But I would much rather try and not succeed than sit back and watch. I am reminded of a quote by 50 cent. (Yes 50 cent!) He said, "I would rather die like a man than live like a coward." My conclusion, God is great, in him all things can be done, therefore, I can do this.

Over in another rose bush, I have had a crazy urge to travel somewhere. Not so sure what that means, but I really want to go somewhere new. California maybe? Texas? I need to hit up Travelocity and just go...anybody wanna join?
