Butterfly, Fly Away

I don't know if this will make me look stupid and immature, but after watching the hannah montana movie, I woke up from this surreal-type life I'm living. After watching this movie, I learned to appreciate things around me. I've learned to appreciate the roof I have over my head, the food I'm provided day and night, the friends who are always there for me in the end, but most importantly, the two people who deep down, mean the world to me. I think I've taken my family for granted, thinking I'm so unfortunate growing up without my parents. But really, I'm blessed for so many different reasons. I know for a fact there are so many children out in the world, with no place to stay and no food to eat. And that to me, is so devastating, that there are people who are in need in that kind of way. I always took the nagging as, "Omg you're so annoying. Who do you think you are." But as of right now, I'm thinking, "Who am I to say, or even think those kind of things?" Where would I be without my grandparents? No where. They raised me to be who I am today. And no, I am not the most well-rounded person in school, I don't always get everything I want and I can't ask for everything all the time because I know we have limitations. But now I know, everything in the world means nothing, if you don't have your priorities set straight.

I'm on my own spiritual high.
I'm going to pray more, read His words more, and most importantly, pray a lot more.
I've always said things like, "I'm going to build my foundation whatever and have faith in God." But in fact, I never kept up with my words. And for a change, I'd like to experience first hand, what it's like to have His presence in my life.

So here's a song dedicated to my grandparents, for all that they've done to do the best they can in order to mold me into the person I am today. I'm not perfect, no, but I'd like to think that I'm a strong person because of them.

Butterfly Fly Away -Miley Cyrus

You tucked me in, turned out the light
Kept me safe and sound at night
Little girls depend on things like that

Brushed my teeth and combed my hair
Had to drive me everywhere
You were always there when I looked back

You had do it all alone
Make a living, make a home
Must have been as hard as it could be

And when I couldn't sleep at night
Scared things wouldn't turn out right
You would hold my hand and sing to me

Caterpillar in the tree, how you wonder who you'll be
Can't go far but you can always dream

Wish you may and wish you might
Don't you worry, hold on tight
I promise you there will come a day
Butterfly, fly away

Butterfly, fly away
Got your wings now you can't stay
Take those dreams and make them all come true
Butterfly, fly away
You've been waiting for this day
All along and known just what to do
Buttery, butterfly, butterfly
Butterfly, fly away
Butterfly, fly away
Butterfly, fly away...

For once, I feel like I've expressed my feelings entirely. I feel good.
