Dixie Chicks - Landslide
I have never really cared for this song, until today. Today I was reading Mindy Kaling's book "Is everybody hanging out without me?" and she mentioned a lyric from this song. Now, I can't get the song, or the words, out of my head. So beautiful!
It amazes me how a song, that I can remember the day of the first time I heard it, and have changed the channels on so many times, can suddenly become like a new song, just because you hear it in a new light, or like me...finally listen to the words.
The funny thing is, the reason why I didn't like the song is because someone had told me that it was a song for the writer's dad. I still don't get that reference. This song does not make me think of my father at all, except for that he was there when I was told that. But I can relate to the lyrics, and know that I have held myself back in some areas because I want things to always be the same. But in reality, I look back on my life and can't help but think "Boy am I glad I've changed!"
And I believe I will continue to think like that.
I am not who I was, and I'm still not who I'm going to be. But I will always be true to me in the moment.
