Thumbs up Out of Our Heads and Into Our Hearts...

Well after a grilling three weeks I finally had a break!
I went to Sheryl Crow last night, and was in the first row.
I love her new song!
Out of our heads!
One of the 'Perks' of living where I do is I can get free
concert tickets to this place that is like 5 minutes walking
distance and I can get front row to the people I like.

When I was first 'Detoxing' I ended up at "Kenney Chesney"
and I didn't even know who the hell he was, lol, but I loved
his song, "Livin in Fast Forward" hence the signature line in my
Signature.
I've been going to concerts since I was like 5 literally.
But I stopped going when I started doing meth.
Started going again when I started detoxing, and been going ever since.
Had to force myself to go last night.
Music always keeps me going.

When I was in 'Court' on jury duty, I kept having 'Flashbacks'
the first week to my last 'jury' duty of sneaking my "meth" into
the court house *slaps head* and then sneaking into the bathroom
with their knife and cutting cause it was all so stressful and cutting...
ughh what a nightmare...
It was stressful this time, lots of talk I didn't want to deal with.
Lots of things I "didn't like", lol, but nothing I couldn't handle.
I can't believe what a mess I used to be. It's hard to even comprehend
what a mess I used to be....

Anyway, Sheryl Crow ROCKS!


YouTube - Sheryl Crow-Out Of Our Heads-Live with lyrics

SHERYL CROW
OUT OF OUR HEADS AND INTO OUR HEARTS




"Out Of Our Heads"

If you feel you wanna fight me
There's a chain around your mind
When something is holding you tightly
What is real is so hard to find

Losing babies to genocide
Oh where's the meaning in that plight
Can't you see that we've really bought into
Every word they proclaimed and every lie, oh

If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts
If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts

Someone's feeding on your anger
Someone's been whispering in your ear
You've seen his face before
You've been played before
These aren't the words you need to hear

Through the dawn of darkness blindly
You have blood upon your hands
All the world will treat you kindly
But only the heart can understand, oh understand

If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts
Children of Abraham lay down your fears, swallow your
Tears and look to your heart

If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts
Children of Abraham lay down your fears, swallow your
Tears and look to your heart

Every man is his own prophet
Oh every prophet just a man
I say all the women stand up, say yes to themselves
Teach your children best you can

Let every man bow to the best in himself
We're not killing any more
We're the wisest ones, everybody listen
'Cause you can't fight this feeling any more, oh anymore

If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts
Children of Abraham lay down your fears, swallow your
Tears and look to your heart

If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts
Children of Abraham lay down your fears, swallow your
Tears and look to your heart

(((Done)))

I'm glad you finally got a break! I envy you about concerts...I've never been to one!

I understand about realizing what a mess we were.....I can't believe how bad I was! Well, that's wrong, I do believe it because I lived it, but it's like I was another person. I just remind myself that if I don't work at recovery, I can easily go back there.

Good to see you posting again and hope things are looking up for you!

Hugs and prayers!

Amy

Yea, it's frustrating, as you know even working at recovery, it still yanks on your chain sometimes. Some days I wonder......

I love Sheryl Crow...what a great treat for you after all the yucky stuff recently. I'm so glad you had that chance.
I had front row to Tom Petty one time a few years back (a great surprise for me...I knew we were going to the concert, but front row...wow!) and it was such an awesome experience. And BB King too in a fairly small restore old theater...he is incredible 82 years old and still performing...and doing some darn good shows!
Hugs...I hope life sends you lots of light now that this court stuff is finally history.
