Shine

There’s a place you can go
Where your heart is free
There’s a rhythm
That’s right for your soul

Take a breath, find your courage
And make the leap
Cause your feet always know where to go

And you dance and you dance in an endless flow
In the grace of a perfect design
Stepping out of the dark and into the glow
And the whole world will see when you shine
You can shine (shine)
Shine (shine)

There’s a beauty already inside of you
There’s a difference that only you’ll make
Every place that you spin brings you somewhere new
Finding hope every step that you take

And you dance and you dance in an endless flow
In the grace of a perfect design
Stepping out of the dark and into the glow
And the whole world will see when you shine
You can shine (shine)
Shine (Shine)

Suddenly sparkling bright (shine)
Making a magical light (shine)
You will (shine)
Sisters are there by your side
Love will be your guide

And we dance and we dance in an endless flow
In the grace of a perfect design
Stepping out of the dark and into the glow
The whole world will see when we shine
We will shine (shine)
Shine (shine)

(And we dance and we dance in an endless flow)
Stepping out of the dark and into the glow
(Stepping out of the dark and into the glow)
We will shine (we can shine)
(And we dance and we dance in an endless flow)
Stepping out of the dark and into the glow
(Stepping out of the dark and into the glow)
We will shine (we can shine)
(And we dance and we dance in an endless flow)

Simply thoughts (2)

    You might remember some of my earlier posts being about working at Tom and Rays.
I went there Saturday to help out my Aunt. They were having a huge party of 45 and all the dishwashers were busy. The kitchen was basically a mess. The party had called in saying that there would be 30 people and it turned out there being 15 more. And they expected the food to already be ready.
Scotty...is a mess. He was throwing out every single cuss word I knew and even some I didn't; about the whole situation.
I was sitting in church yesterday. The sermon was Tested and Tempted part two.
Recognize tests and temptations when they arrive.
know your weaknesses.
Make wise choices about people, places, activities and exposures.
Bad company corrupts good morals.
Know that you can say "NO" to sin.
Endure the testing time.

I believe I've caught myself in a test.
Money is a weakness for me and I enjoy earning it. But Scotty...and Cody. It wasn't just cussing but also inappropriate stuff I can't even mention on here.
They're the bad company. And if i continue to help my aunt there...They'll also corrupt my good morals.
The only thing I can think of is asking my aunt if Scotty is working when she calls me to come in.
Is working there really worth it?


                                              Piano vs. Horses
I really don't like piano. I never have. And I don't practice it that much either.
This whole year at piano I've gone to Ms.Julie with the same pieces, I just don't work on them.
Piano isn't cheap. And I feel like I'm wasting that money.
I try to talk to my mom and dad about it.... Mom normally says "Well if you practice more you might find out that you like it." I've been taking piano for 5 years okay? I still don't like it, and that's why I don't want to practice. And dad would say "Nope. Not until you're 18."
See, my dad took piano for 2 years when he was younger and he found out he didn't like it and he quit.
Later through his years he really wished he had continued through piano. So he decided for his children to play the piano until they were 18, unlike he had done.
  I'm really sorry he didn't continue with the piano, but if he hasn't noticed..I'm practially nothing like him. I don't hold his same interests and I shouldn't be forced to do something I don't want to do.
I wanted to take horse back riding lessons this spring. I haven't mentioned it to mom and dad for a while. It's not cheap. And if I'm taking both riding and piano...it's a bit expensive.
So i haven't brought it up. I've held back my riding dreams and I've been holding on to the piano thing. It's such a waste! I don't enjoy it. I'm not practicing. Wednesday is the worst day of the week for me because of piano.
I really want to do riding. Piano was never an intrest for me. I told mom about it but this time I told her to listen. And I also told her not to say: but if you practice more, you might find out that you like it.
She was taken a bit aback. I just all the sudden came out with this new piece of information, something I've been holding back for a long time. She told me to talk to dad about it. And I said that he won't listen. He'll just cut me off about not stopping until I'm 18.  She told me she'll tell him to listen to me.
Hopefully. It might work this time. He has no idea how serious I've been about quitting piano.
