Chasing Paper Stars: I'm Happy

I'm Happy

Sometimes I write because I have a whole head full of things to say. Sometimes I write to vent and honestly it's my way of yelling without directing words towards a particular person. Sometimes I write because I'm bored and I have these ridiculous thoughts that won't stop swirling in my head so I jot them down in order to motivate myself. Sometimes I write just because...

Tonight though, I'm writing because, well ... because I'm happy!

That sounds cheesy but it's so true. The past 2 weeks have shown me and reminded me that I'm one lucky girl. It wasn't one particular action or one particular person that made me feel this way...it's the whole package.

I'm happy because I'm surrounded by people who care. I'm happy because my puppy is now back in Georgia with me. I'm happy because my parents love me no matter what. I'm happy because I got to eat a hot dog on the streets of New York. I'm happy because Kevin is amazing. I'm happy because I didn't break anything snowboarding. I'm happy that Summer gets so excited to see me. I'm happy that Michelle sent me an "I Miss You' text. I'm happy that Twisted Taco makes Vege tacos so well. I'm happy to see my roomie. I'm happy that my desk at NAMB hasn't changed. I'm haPPy, hAppy Happy! I could write hundreds of reasons why, but it all boils down to one fact...

Tonight I write because I'm happy :)

I see Your face in every sunrise
The colors of the morning are inside Your eyes
The world awakens in the light of the day
I look up to the sky and say
You’re beautiful

I see Your power in the moonlit night
Where planets are in motion and galaxies are bright
We are amazed in the light of the stars
It’s all proclaiming who You are
You’re beautiful, You're beautiful

I see you there hanging on a tree
You bled and then you died and then you rose again for me
Now you are sitting on Your heavenly throne
Soon we will be coming home
You’re beautiful, you're beautiful

When we arrive at eternity’s shore
Where death is just a memory and tears are no more
We’ll enter in as the wedding bells ring
Your bride will come together and we’ll sing
You’re beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful

I see Your face, You're beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful

I hope that the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,

But more than anything, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And you always give more than you take.

But more than anything, yeah, and more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
