One in a Million

She was so good, but I was scared
That nothing ever lasts for long
They say it's better to have loved and lost
But I couldn't bear to lose it all
So back and forth, I dragged it on
And she didn't know what was wrong
And it wasn't that obvious to me

No, I didn't want to get to close
But still I didn't want to let her go
It seems we always end up hurting in the end
But then I threw all caution to the wind
And I opened up and let her in
And now she's got me high as the ceiling
Cuz she's one in a million

It felt so good to hold her close
Like it was almost worth the risk
Sometimes it's better to leave it alone
But I couldn't at a time like this
And she grabbed my hand and pulled me through
Though I didn't expect her to
Why wasn't it obvious to me?

No, I didn't want to get to close
But still I didn't want to let her go
It seems we always end up hurting in the end
But then I threw all caution to the wind
And I opened up and let her in
And now she's got me high as the ceiling
Cuz she's one in a million

And like a soldier she held strong
And swore she'd never run away
Though she could have come and gone
No, she stayed

No, I didn't want to get too close
But still I didn't want to let her go
It seems we always end up leaving in the end
But then I stopped looking for a sign
And I took that girl and made her mine
And now she's got me high as the ceiling
Cuz she's one in a million

Thoughts by Me

Life is hard.
I love eating.
Toms are my favorite pair of shoes.
I love my friends. A lot.
I don't like doing things I'm not good at.
Confronting people is something I'm not good at.
Pretty sure I would die without watching a little TV.
Having a crush is fun, but frustrating when you want more.
Sleeping with the window open is the best.
Except when they garbage truck comes at 7 AM.
Nothing better than having a friend you can tell ANYTHING.
I love my ward.
I love the gospel.
My hair is growing and it's so great.
There's nothing like having friends you know care about you. A lot.
I wish I was better at relationships.
Carmel popcorn is really good.
Cherry 7up for 1.00 is an amazing deal.
Pumpkin spice egg nog isn't as good as original egg nog.
I just wish he would think about me like I think about him.
I love skinny jeans.
Pretty sure I would die without my friends.
I love spending weekends with my family.
I have a new love of dogs.
But they still scare me.
I wish I was more fit.
Crackle toe nail polish is so cool.
I love wearing my glasses.
My roommate loves love and it's definitely rubbing off on me.
I get jealous very easily.
I'm the driver of my life.
Doing crafts is a new hobby of mine.
There is nothing like having a water bottle you can't drink enough out of.
I hate GE classes.
I love talking to my cousin. She's definitely one of my best friends.
Holding hands is something I want to do like right now.
I know where I am in my life is exactly the right place for me right now.
Procrastination is something I'm definitely an expert at.
I wish I could read people's thoughts, it would make life so much easier.
Reminiscing the past is great but sad.
I love my job. most of the time.
Life is good.

Sometimes

Sometimes you just need to vent about life.
Sometimes you just need to talk things out.
Sometimes life doesn't go how you want it to.
Sometimes you don't need to stress.
Sometimes you do.
Sometimes you need to understand why.
Sometimes you don't.
Sometimes just listening can be the best therapy.
Sometimes things can get annoying and frustrating.
Sometimes life isn't fair.
Sometimes you just have to get up and get over it.
Sometimes things do go your way.
Sometimes lyrics to a song say exactly how you feel.
Sometimes you need someone in your life who will listen.
Sometimes all you need is love.
Sometimes you don't feel like doing it, but you do it anyway.
Sometimes things seem too difficult.
Sometimes people leave, but they come back.
Sometimes moving on is best.
Sometimes getting your hopes up is setting yourself up for heartbreak.
Sometimes it's not.
Sometimes everything in life goes your way.
Sometimes all you need is a good friend.
Sometimes seeing you brings back those feelings I've been trying to hide.
Sometimes bad boys break hearts.
Sometimes you will get through it no matter how hard it is.
Sometimes it will be worth it cause that's what love is.

Inspiration

I know that the leaders of the church are inspired and receive that inspiration from God. Today I got a calling and it's a calling that I honestly would never have wanted to do. Visiting Teaching is something that I don't particularly have a testimony in and I've said that a lot before. Well, God is aware of where I need to improve and apparently it's in Visiting Teaching. My calling is a Visiting Teacher District Leader which means that I have to go around and put together the visiting teaching report to give to the Relief Society President. I don't particularly like Visiting Teaching so this will be good for me to learn to love it and gain a testimony in it. Also, I know that leaders are inspired to say things to us from God. I had an interview with my bishop today and he said some things that were exactly what I needed to hear and what I've been thinking about. God does know me and knows the things that I need and he works through the leaders of his church.
