I was sitting listening to the radio the other day while waiting for Alin inside the gas station and the DJ was asking what are your thoughts on Pop, Rock and other genres converting to country music. My first thought was well as long as they sing country I don’t care where they came from before. I personally prefer songs over singers most of the time anyways so I don’t really have an opinion on that.

Becky and Mommy Then he played a song by Jewel. Now I will say I don’t think I have ever heard Jewel sing I have heard of her but never listened to her. I listened since she does have a pretty voice. The song started off with a love gone bad type song. Then I heard the chorus and it touched me so deeply and I decided that That is what I want to start doing and feeling.

Cause come the morning light, oh

I’m gonna love myself
More than anyone else
Believe in me
Even if someone can’t see
The stronger woman in me

I’m gonna be my own best friend
Stick with me till the end
Won’t lose myself again
Never, no
Cause there’s a stronger woman
A stronger woman in me

And this part of the song just touched me so deeply.

I’ve lived on hope
Just like a child
Walking that mile
Faking that smile
All the while
Wishing my heart had wings
Well tonight I am gonna be
The kind of woman I want my daughter to be

For those who don’t really know me I do have some issues with myself and how I feel about me. This is something I have been working on but still have those moments. Then listening to this part of the song It made me realize that I am stronger then I think and I do deserve to be stronger.

I think that we realize these things at the oddest times and that is ok as long as we do see what it is and we feel it strong enough to want to make a change in your life.

I also want to point out that this has Nothing to do with the rest of the song, I love everything in my live just not me all the time. I am happily married to a great man. This shows me that when listening to music to look for something deeper then what it says You can read the rest of the lyrics at http://www.lyricsmode.com
