say what I need to say

Watch your thoughts, they become words….. Watch your words, they become actions….. Watch your actions, they become character….. Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.

So the bottom line is: In the long run, you become what you think about.

Destiny may be seen either as a fixed sequence of events that is inevitable and unchangeable, OR that individuals CHOOSE their own destiny by by watching their words & their action which becomes their character which determines their destiny.

to remember!

“The Heart Of Life”

I hate to see you cry
Lying there in that position
There’s things you need to hear
So turn off your tears
And listen

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No it won’t all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good

You know, it’s nothing new
Bad news never had good timing
But, then your circle of friends
Will defend the silver lining

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No it won’t all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
Fear is a friend who’s misunderstood
But I know the heart of life is good
I know it’s good

“To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons
life taught me. It is the most-requested column I’ve
ever written. My odometer
rolled over to 90 in
August, so here is the column
once
more.”
1. Life isn’t fair, but it’s
still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next
small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time
hating anyone.
4. Your job won’t take
care of you when you are sick.
Your friends and
parents will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don’t have to win every
argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It’s more healing
than crying alone.
8. It’s OK to get
angry with God. He can take it.
9. Save for retirement starting with your
first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate,
resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with
your past so it won’t screw
up the
present.
12. It’s OK to let your children
see you cry.
13. Don’t compare your life
to others. You have no idea what
their journey is all
about.
14. If a relationship has to be a
secret, you shouldn’t be in
it.
15. Everything can
change in the blink of an eye.
But don’t worry; God
never blinks.
16. Take a deep
breath. It calms the mind.
17. Get rid of
anything that isn’t useful,
beautiful or
joyful.
18. Whatever doesn’t kill you
really does make you
stronger.
19. It’s never too late to have a
happy childhood. But the
second one is up to you and no
one else.
20. When it comes to going after
what you love in life, don’t
take no for an
answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the
nice sheets, wear the fancy
lingerie. Don’t save it
for a special occasion. Today is
special.
22. Over prepare, then go with
the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don’t
wait for old age to wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is the
brain.
25. No one is in charge of your
happiness but you.
26. Frame every
so-called disaster with these
words “In five years,
will this matter?”
27. Always choose
life.
28. Forgive everyone
everything.
29. What other people think
of you is none of your
business.
30. Time heals almost everything.
Give time
time.
31. However good or bad a situation
is, it will change.
32. Don’t take
yourself so seriously. No one
else
does.
33. Believe in
miracles.
34. God loves you because of who God
is, not because of
anything you did or didn’t
do.
35. Don’t audit life. Show up and
make the most of it
now.
36. Growing old beats the
alternative – dying young.
37. Your children
get only one childhood.
38. All
that truly matters in the end is
that you
loved.
39. Get outside every day.
Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If
we all threw our problems in a
pile and saw everyone
else’s, we’d grab ours
back.
41. Envy is
a waste of time. You already have
all you
need.
42. The best is
yet to come.
43. No matter how you
feel, get up, dress up and show
up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn’t
tied with a bow, but it’s
still a
“gift.”

Take out of your wasted honor
Every little best frustration
Take out all your so called problems
Better put them in quotations

Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say

Walkin like a one man army
Fightin with the shadows in your head
Living out the same old moment
Knowing you’d be better off instead
If you could only

Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say

Have no fear for giving in
Have no fear for getting older
You better know that in the end its better to say to much
Than to never to say what you need to say again

Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open
Why?
Say what you need to say …………

Well I don’t really have anything profound to tell anyone at the moment. I should probably get in touch of a friend I haven’t spoken to for… about 3 months now, but there’s that little voice in the back of my head that tells me, “maybe he just doesn’t want to talk to me ever again and maybe it’s better that way…” I just want to strangle that little voice because I know it’s my self-doubt trying to tease me back into the comfort zone.

And what if I don’t feel regret for not talking to him? I guess if I don’t talk to him I wouldn’t know if I regret not talking to him… my brain just exploded from that sentence.

Everyone should. It is totally difficult for me. I’ve missed out on a lot of opportunities by not saying what I mean, or what I needed to, at the appropriate time.

I think I’m going to go download that John Mayer song and just drill it into my head until I man up and start getting this goal off the ground.

DO IT!

Saying what I needed to say was an excellent choice. EXCELLENT!

IT’S SO HARD!

Goodbye to the people I’ve lost
and the moments that have slipped by.
