Blog 2.0

Blog 1.0 died from lack of follow through, but after reading some fantastic blogs written by some awesome friends, I thought I'd give it another go.

Instead of going it on my own, this time I've decided to cheat a bit and rely on some talented songwriters whose lyrical poetry allow me to express the emotions of life.

After 2 wonderful months at home I'm starting to pack again, this time for a 3 month trip to India. Every time I embark on a new adventure I found myself searching out the Dixie Chicks on the iPod, their newest (and best) album kicks off with an amazing song - The Long Way Around:

My friends from high school
Married their high school boyfriends
Moved into houses in the same ZIP codes
Where their parents live

But I, I could never follow
No I, I could never follow

....................................................................

I've been a long time gone now
Maybe someday, someday I'm gonna settle down
But I've always found my way somehow

By taking the long way
Taking the long way around
Taking the long way
Taking the long way around

..................................................................

Well, I never seem to do it like anybody else
Maybe someday, someday I'm gonna settle down
If you ever want to find me I can still be found

Taking the long way
Taking the long way around

My life isn't what I thought it would be when I was a girl growing up in Aurora, but I wouldn't change it for the world. Pin It
