In her song the chorus just really hits me when she says
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground?
I Gotta find my place, I wanna hear my sound
Dont care about all the pain in front of me
I just wanna be happy
My mom called last night and told me a VERY sad story about a family with 3 little boys and thier baby died on Sunday after falling off a chair and hitting his head! That night BJ and I talked about how blessed we are!
Life hurts sometimes, I break down, I feel like the world throws me off the edge every now and then
BUT
I am blessed and I can CHOOSE to be
HAPPY
or
SAD
I CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY
Here are a few of my reasons for happiness TODAY:
The boys and I danced and danced around the kitchen during lunch time
GRAHAM gave me that million dollar smile when I was twirling around that made my heart jump
BJ called to say hi
I drank a DDP for lunch (my drug of choice Diet Dr Pepper)
BJ will be here for dinner YIPPY
Girls Night TONIGHT! I am looking forward to some quality girly time
And #1 I have a beautiful family who is messy and grouchy and imperfect but we are safe, happy (75% of the time which is a GOOD percentage) and we LOVE each other!

I had never heard that song and I really liked it too! The first time the chorus was sung it gave me goosebumps. It's so true... I believe that happiness comes by living our lives outside of our comfort zone, so to say. I can't be worried about what others will think or say about me, I can't be scared of pain or sorrow or fear the unknown.
Anyway, yeah. Just wanted to say I liked it too. Thanks for sharing. :) Reading your blog brings happiness to me. :)
Hey Cam! I want to be happy too! by the way... You are a freaking AWESOME friend and I love you! thanks for helping to pull me out of this rut that I am in for no real reason. I would love for you to answer my calls because I miss you, even though we hung out last night and you fed me amazingly good food... I still miss you
It's a good thing to have a positive attitude, which Pres. Hinckley said is a spiritual gift. With a positive and appreciative attitude, you can overcome anything! Love you lots!
