I'm pretty sure the people at the post office now know my handwriting and the distinct teal colored pen I chose to use whenever they see one of my letters : )
This week I've been getting a lot of responses, some in very unexpected ways, and it's been very humbling and a little overwhelming. I'd been praying for big things to happen, but it kinda of caught me off guard when they started to (it doesn't make much sense, I know, that's just me). Money is one of the things I struggle with worrying about, so to see people already being so extremely generous…that means a lot to me. Thank you!
A lot of the lyrics to songs seem to say exactly what I'm thinking or feeling, so I will probably end up putting a lot up here as time goes by.
"Where I Belong"
Switchfoot
Feeling like a refugee
Like it don't belong to me
The colors flash across the sky
This air feels strange to me
Feeling like a tragedy
I take a deep breath and close my eyes
One last time
Storms on the wasteland
Dark clouds on the plains again
We were born into the fight
But I'm not sentimental
This skin and bones is a rental
And no one makes it out alive
Until I die I'll sing these songs
On the shores of Babylon
Still looking for a home
In a world where I belong
Where the weak are finally strong
Where the righteous right the wrongs
Still looking for a home
In a world where I belong
Feels like we're just waiting, waiting
While our hearts are just breaking, breaking
Feels like we've been fighting against the tide
I wanna see the earth start shaking
I wanna see a generation
Finally waking up inside
Until I die I'll sing these songs
On the shores of Babylon
Still looking for a home
In a world where I belong
Where the weak are finally strong
Where the righteous right the wrongs
Still looking for a home
In a world where I belong
This body's not my own
This world is not my own
But I still can hear the sound
Of my heart beating out
So let's go boys, play it loud
On the final day I die
I want to hold my head up high
I want to tell You that I tried
To live it like a song
And when I reach the other side
I want to look You in the eye
And know that I've arrived
In a world where I belong
