Taking Chances

Don't know much about your life.
Don't know much about your world, but
Don't want to be alone tonight,
On this planet they call earth.

You don't know about my past, and
I don't have a future figured out.
And maybe this is going too fast.
And maybe it's not meant to last,

But what do you say to taking chances,
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,
What do you say,
What do you say?

I just want to start again,
And maybe you could show me how to try,
And maybe you could take me in,
Somewhere underneath your skin?

What do you say to taking chances,
What do you say to jumping off the edge?

Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,
What do you say,
What do you say?

And I had my heart beaten down,
But I always come back for more, yeah.
There's nothing like love to pull you up,
When you're laying down on the floor there.

So talk to me, talk to me,
Like lovers do.
Yeah walk with me, walk with me,
Like lovers do,
Like lovers do.

What do you say to taking chances,
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,
What do you say,
What do you say?

Don't know much about your life
Don't know much about your world

So I was singing this song at the top of my lungs as I was driving through the snow before. I started to realize what a funk I have been in lately. I know that I have had a lot of change in my life in the last few months, but I know God has a plan for my life. 


The snow tonight was so beautiful. Then I got to trying to figure out how every  snow flake is different. I think sometimes god sends me little messages. For once, I am going to do something to make me feel pretty. I am determined. I am determined this time not to turn down the good guys and hurt them, when they are exactly what every girl wants.


So then this song hit me. Do we deserve a second chance? Not usually, but somehow we get them.  I'm the girl who probably deserves them least. I tend to tell people how I feel, which normally isn't a good idea. Some times I push people away to avoid getting hurt....


So for the girl who always plays it safe I guess it is time for me to take chances. What better time than with a bunch of new starts happening. 


So here's a toast. To all the times I have played it safe...to all the new things in my life.
