The snow collects the good with the bad, as can be seen when it melts. This blog is my snow, holding onto my experiences.

this one's for the girls
08.10.04 (8:25 pm)   [edit]

"This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls"


Martina McBride


For some reason, I've sung along with, or at least enjoyed that song recently when I've been driving.  I'm not a huge country fan, but I've felt connected to that song.  Maybe it's 'cause I'm used to living in girls' dorms, so I love and care for my sisters.  Maybe because it's like a mentor or aunt encouraging me through a song.  Maybe it's 'cause I've been sad, and little things can get to me- either good or bad.


I'm not a girl like the one she sings about- I don't 'love without holding back' or 'dream with everything' I have.  I try to be open, and accept people for who they are, and not judge- but I still hestitate to give everything.  It's scary!  that's not an excuse, but my reason.  I do dream rather big, but I don't always do much to accomplish it.


Why am I so hard on myself?  (answer: doesn't someone have to be?)

You should try to accomplich your dreams. It is a good feeling to have your dreams come true.

I understand what you are saying about giving everything. It is hard and scary.

Reply to chrisflea: Thanks for the encouragement!
Reply to cb: '25- just trying to survive' reminds me of the dorms sometimes- but I mostly just like the song in general and am happy to hear it when it comes on. It's good to know you like the song, too. I do wonder where my life is going to go. What part do you relate to the most?
