...of Flip-Flops and Remembering...

It's been a really tiring week- and it's about to get worse, what, with me having to hand in three assignments this friday (which is just about less than 48 hours away!).

So, because I was so lazy and tired today and had to go to college just for one miserable class at 4pm and crawl home in the after-work traffic, I couldn't care less how I went to college and what I wore...to the extent that I actually wore this to college- I looked like I was going to the beach and honnestly, if given the choice, I'd have picked the beach without a doubt!:



While I was driving home today I heard Steven Curtis Chapman's song- Remembering you. Untill today, I never really had the chance and time to listen to the words of this song. When I finally listenend to what he was saying (because I literally couldn't move my car for about 5 minutes due to crazy traffic), the words really got to me. I can't say for sure why, but I do know that it has since become one of my personal favorites. So, here it is:

Remembering You

I found You in the most unlikely way
But really it was You who found me
And I found myself in the gifts that You gave
You gave me so much and I

I wish You could stay
but I'll, I'll wait for the day

Chorus
And I watch as the cold winter melts into spring
And I'll be remembering You
Oh and I'll smell the flowers and hear the birds sing
and I'll be remembering You, I'll be remembering You

From the first moment when I heard Your name
Something in my heart came alive
You showed me love and no words could explain
A love with the power to
Open the door
To a world I was made for

The dark night, the hard fight
The long climb up the hill knowing the cost
The brave death, the last breathe
The silence whispering all hope was lost
The thunder, the wonder
A power that brings the dead back to life

I wish You could stay
But I'll wait for the day
And though You've gone away
You come back and

And I'll watch as the sun fills a sky that was dark
And I'll be remembering You
And I'll think of the way that You fill up my heart
And I'll be remembering You
