Define My Own Destiny...
As I sat at work with my Blueberry Dunkin' Donuts coffee and an inbox flooded with e-mails - I had Lauryn Hill's "The Miseducation of" on repeat. Her lyrics are hitting me like bricks... I can't help but reflect on my life and think through where I am going - where I have been. And with the reflection, I can't help but question what inspired and currently inspires my plans and whether I am truly living them out. If I am not, how will I get there? LIFE is so beautiful and always revolving...I am moving slower than before but yet I'm still moving towards my destiny...
Enjoy Lauryn, she says it better than I ever can:
My world it moves so fast today
The past it seems so far away
And I squeeze it so tight, I can't breathe
And every time I try to be
What someone has thought of me
So caught up, I wasn't able to acheive
But deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny
I look at my environment
And wonder where the fire went
What happened to everything we used to be
I hear so many cry for help
Searching outside of themselves
Now I know His strength is within me
And deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny
And deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny
The past it seems so far away
And I squeeze it so tight, I can't breathe
And every time I try to be
What someone has thought of me
So caught up, I wasn't able to acheive
But deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny
I look at my environment
And wonder where the fire went
What happened to everything we used to be
I hear so many cry for help
Searching outside of themselves
Now I know His strength is within me
And deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny
And deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny
