Grateful to FINALLY FEEL "SURRENDER"...letting go....throwing in the white flag and saying enough is enough. It's been such a long, hard road....only I MADE it that way. Grateful to understand that NOW.

I am thankful for the job my daughter just received today.
I am thankful that my husband seems to be hitting a new low. May this be his rock bottom.
I am thankful for faithful and caring friends.

Today I am Grateful for happiness and freedom from addiction

As my life goes on I believe
Somehow something's changed
Something deep inside
Ooh a part of me

There's a strange new light in my eyes
Things I've never known
Changin' my life
Changin' me

I've been searchin'
So long
To find an answer
Now I know my life has meaning
Ow oh

Now I see myself as I am
Feeling very free
Life is everything
Ooh it's meant to be
When my tears have come to an end
I will understand
What I left behind
Part of me

I've been searching
So long
To find and answer
Now I know my life has meaning
Woah woah

Searching
Don't you know I'm hell yeah
For an answer
To the question
Oh yeah
For our minds
Baby
Baby it's true
It's only natural
It's only natural baby, yeah
Good things
In life
Take a long time
Yeah yeah
