It's Really Me

Today is a better day already, compared to how I felt yesterday. Thank God!

As I was leaving home this morning I heard Kirk Franklin's new song "I Smile". I've heard the song before, but honestly hadn't really listened to the lyrics. The words that caught me this morning were "Today's a new day..." and then I heard

"I smile, even though I hurt see I smile,
I know God is working so I smile...
You look so much better when you smile, so smile.
Now everyday ain't gonna be perfect"

That did it for me! I can do this. Even though what I felt wasn't necessarily hurting, more like heavy/uncomfortable...it's gonna be alright.

Now I do understand that this song was probably not meant the way I'm currently interpretting it, but hey it's working for me right now. Music can influence us in so many ways.

Yep...it's a new day, let's make it happen!

Well, I tried to get away with the belly picture for you all, but some of you have asked to see "ME". Head to toe, so here you go, taken this morning before work. Hope this is good enough Tasha and Brandi!
