Good evening.
I just wanted to wish you all a happy Easter if you celebrate. To those who don’t, I hope you had a fun day filled with lots of chocolate and fun family time.
My day was pretty uneventful. I mostly just stayed home and watch the series The Bible on the History channel. I wasn’t sure I was going to watch the last part as it shows Jesus’s crucifiction and i’m pretty easily upset by violence and saddened he went through that. I have a very hard time watching others go through pain and from what I understand about crucifiction from watching documentaries it’s a very very painful way to die. I know he knew he had to but still, it doesn’t make it any easier to watch. Here i sit though, watching the last part of it. I definitely debated changing channels but I figured I’d watched the whole series thus far so would finish.
I’m guessing what I wrote above shocks some of you, me watching that series. Being who I am, it probably seems strange. Ok so just to set the record straight…
I do believe God exists.
I do believe that Jesus died on the cross to save everyone from their sins.
So there you have it. Right now i’m in the midst of exploring my faith again. I may not understand everything there is to know but I’m reading at any rate. We will see what my future holds I suppose.
Oi! I knew i shouldn’t have watched, I’m in tears already and it’s only in the first hour.
On a happier note: I have chosen another song for my CD i’m working on. I have decided that this CD will be a totally country one this time whilst I finish writing lyrics for the blues CD i’m writing. I’ll post the lyrics to it as it’s a song I’m totally addicted to at the moment.
Artist: Miranda Lambert
Song: Mama’s Broken Heart
Album: Four The Record
I cut my bangs with some rusty kitchen scissors
I screamed his name ’til the neighbors called the cops
I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver
Don’t know what I did next, all I know’s I couldn’t stop
Word got around to the barflies & the baptists
My mama’s phone started ringin’ off the hook
I can hear her now, sayin’ she ain’t gonna have it
Don’t matter how you feel, it only matters how you look
Go and fix your make up girl, it’s just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and start actin’ like a lady
Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
Even when you fall apart
But this ain’t my mama’s broken heart
Wish I could be just a little less dramatic
Like a Kennedy when Camelot went down in flames
Leave it to me to be holdin’ the matches
When the fire trucks show up and there’s nobody else to blame
Can’t get revenge and keep a spotless reputation
Sometimes revenge is a choice you gotta make
My mama came from a softer generation
Where you get a grip and bite your lip just to save a little face
Go and fix your make up girl, it’s just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and start actin’ like a lady
Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
Even when you fall apart
But this ain’t my mama’s broken heart
Powder your nose, paint your toes
Line your lips and keep ’em closed
Cross your legs, dot your i’s
And never let ’em see you cry
Go and fix your make up, well it’s just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and start actin’ like a lady
Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
Even when you fall apart
But this ain’t my mama’s broken heart
I do believe this CD’s going to be fun to do.
Well, this is all for now. I’ll write again soon.
