Be Happy!

I am feeling a little low today. I don’t know if it’s just because of my monthly visit or what. Hormones. 😦 I got depressed yesterday but I thought this morning that I’ll feel a lot better because it’s out.

But I feel worse! Or maybe I chose to feel worse. Until I heard Miley’s song “Bottom of the Ocean”:

It’s been in the past for a while
I get a flash and I smile
Am I crazy
Still miss you, baby
It was real
It was right
But it burned too hot to survive
All that’s left is,
All these ashes

Where does the love go
I don’t know
When it’s all set and done
How could I be losing you forever,
After all the time we spent together
I have to know why I had to lose you
Now you’ve just become like everything
I’ll never find again
At the Bottom Of The Ocean

In a dream, you appear
For a while, you were here
So I keep sleeping,
Just to keep you with me
I’ll draw a map,
Connect the dots
With all the memories that I got
What I’m missing,
I’ll keep reliving

I don’t know
When it’s all set and done
How could I be losing you forever,
After all the time we spent together
I have to know why I had to lose you
Now you’ve just become like everything
I’ll never find again,
At the bottom of the ocean

(Voice)
This is it
Let go
Breathe

You don’t have to love me for me
To baby ever understand
Just know I love the time we both had
And I don’t ever want to see you sad
Be happy
And I don’t wanna hold you
If you don’t wanna tell me you love me babe
Just know I’m gonna have to walk away
I’ll be big enough for both of us to say
Be happy

(Voice)
Be happy

I really didn’t notice all the other lyrics… just the voice that keeps on saying “Be happy”. And I remembered what my mentors always say about happiness. It is a CHOICE! It’s great because you can choose your emotions at any given time. It may take a lot of practice at first, but it’s true. You can choose how you want to feel! That is good news! 🙂 So right now, I am choosing to feel happy by thinking happy thoughts… hmm.. thinking about what I’ll do with my first salary makes me happy. Thinking and planning for the future make me happy! I look forward to treating my family to a delicious meal! Yey! Yummy! Food makes everybody happy. 🙂

    Out of reach
    Gabrielle

    Knew the signs
    Wasn’t right
    I was stupid for a while
    Swept away by you
    And now I feel like a fool
    So confused,
    My heart’s bruised
    Was I ever loved by you?

    Out of reach, so far
    I never had your heart
    Out of reach,
    Couldn’t see
    We were never
    Meant to be

    Catch myself
    From despair
    I could drown
    If I stay here
    Keeping busy everyday
    I know I will be ok

    But I was
    So confused,
    My heart’s bruised
    Was I ever loved by you?

    Out of reach, so far
    I never had your heart
    Out of reach,
    Couldn’t see
    We were never
    Meant to be

    So much hurt,
    So much pain
    Takes a while
    To regain
    What is lost inside
    And I hope that in time,
    You’ll be out of my mind
    And i’ll be over you

    But now i’m
    So confused,
    My heart’s bruised
    Was I ever loved by you?

    Out of reach,
    So far
    I never had your heart
    Out of reach,
    Couldn’t see
    We were never
    Meant to be

    Out of reach,
    So far
    You never gave your heart
    In my reach, I can see
    There’s a life out there
    For me

  2. Bitaw my, ingon si pastor gahapon “No pain, No gain”..we just have to be patient in everything..pareho mangud tang duha gusto pagka ugma daun or ura-urada mawala dayon ang mga kasakit sa dughan pro ingon pa ni pastor the sweetness of suffering is when jesus told us “you suffer because you did the right thing”..and with that we need to gave up the right to give up..very heartwarming kaayo ang gi preach gahapon my..

  3. Hi han!!! Kabalo ba ka nga ang “Out of Reach” akong official song last April-May? hehe.. You know na para kay kinsa. Hehe.. That’s why when I saw nga mao imong gi comment, nalingaw au ko.. Swak na swak man gud ang song.. 🙂 Was I ever loved by you??? Hehe…

    Thank you pud for the preaching that you shared to me. It’s really so nice jud.. “No pain, no gain” is really, really true and applicable to any aspect of our lives. Korek jud, we’re both impatient, impulsive and stubborn! Haha.

    And I will always remember that last comment.. “God didn’t promised a storm-free life but a storm-proof life” Love you Honey! Mwah!!! 🙂
