I'm alive and well...

So damn easy to say that life’s so hard

Everybody’s got their share of battle scars

As for me I’d like to think my lucky stars

thatI’m alive, and well

Life’s been hard…and I’m not quite sure the wounds have scarred up yet…but yes…I’m alive and can honestly say I’m doing well…

It’d be easy to add up all the pain

And all the dreams you set and watch go up in flames

Dwell on the wreckage as it smolders in the rain

But not me, I’m alive

There’s a time in life when you have to realize that new dreams need to be made. To me that doesn’t mean drastic changes. There’s no need to pack up and move, no need to seek out new friends, and no need to abandon the life you have come to know. A drastic change can come from an attitude adjustment, admitting faults to begin righting wrongs, or simply offering forgiveness. That would require you not to dwell on the things that have gone wrong, so that you can move forward…

Stars are dancin’ on the water here tonight

It’s good for the soul, and there’s not a sole in
sight

But this motors caught it wind and brought me back to
life

Now I’m alive, and well

Life…Love…the hope and potential for happiness once again has been seen and felt. My sails are once again full. My energy for life is back!

And today you know that’s good enough for me

Breathing in and out is a blessing can’t you
see

Today is the first day of the rest of my life

Now I’m alive, and well

Yeah I’m alive, and well

The fact that I can say that I’m alive and well is a blessing. It is more than a blessing. The feeling of fresh air in my lungs gives me the courage to face what lies ahead.
