You Haven't Seen the Last of Me.

Recently I had an idea for a second blog. Why do I need 2, why can't I just post these on my other one? Well the other one is primarily for Jake and his struggles/issues and for me to share our story as well as resources/research with those who need it. This one is going to be more about me.. I know, exciting right? Who cares about me, my life is not that exciting and definitely not worth following a blog over but it's my blog and I can do what I want so there.. BUT.. this one is all going to be music/movie/book based! What? Yes each post will be based around a song, movie or book clip. Why? Well because my life is tied so much to music, my friends, my mood, my life experiences, etc. Of course there are also those movie clips that make you feel good, say, why can't that happen to me, or oh crap, are they talking about me? I recently told a friend of mine that I wanted to write again but every time I do, the stuff that comes out is a lyric form a song, a line from a movie or something from a book I've already had.. So basically this is me telling my life through other people.. AKA my life according to..
They may not be the best songs, and some of you may say? Why that song? Or you like that artist?? Really? Well it's not about that. I love music on a deeper level than who sings it. I listen to the lyrics, I have memories associated with songs, and plus this is MY blog. If you don't like my song choices, 1) write your own blog or 2) don't read mine.:)
My first song is
You Haven't Seen the Last of Me by Cher from the movie Burlesque.





Feeling broken
Barely holding on
But just there's something so strong
Somewhere inside me.
And I am down, but I'll get up again.
Don't count me out just yet

I've been brought down to my knees
And I've been pushed way past the point of breaking,
But I can take it.
I'll be back -
Back on my feet
This is far from over
You haven't seen the last of me.
You haven't seen the last of me.

They can
Say that
I won't stay around
But I'm gonna stand my ground
You're not gonna stop me.
You don't know me, you don't know who I am.
Don't count me out so fast

I've been brought down to my knees
And I've been pushed way past the point of breaking,
But I can take it.
I'll be back -
Back on my feet
This is far from over
You haven't seen the last of me


Why this one? Well the lyrics of course.. This may be my new theme song. The way I look at my life and how I want to love it. I've had things happen in my life that could have broken me, could have knocked me down and for a period of time, they probably did. But I always get up, it may take awhile and it may require some help but I will do it. I won't give up, I won't go down without a fight. My friends seem to think I am a hero, but I'm not. I love them for thinking I am and I am humbled by that but I do not feel like one. Most people say they could never do what I do but I really think that most of them could, if they were faced with it as well. There are some things in my life (relationship status in particular) that I pretty much feel like giving up on and maybe that one I can, but I won't ever give up on Jake, I won't give up being his mother, his protector and I will fight for him until I draw my last breath. He deserves the best life can give him. I will make sure he gets that!
I may not be perfect, I don't even want to try and attempt to be. I am me! Things that I have experienced in my life have made me who I am today. The mistakes I've made, the choices, the good and bad decisions, the lesson's I've learned are all mine. Everything happens for a reason, there is always a silver lining, when one door closes, another one opens, ... insert appropriate cliche here...

So any way's that is today's song. Each one may be different, depending on the day or the mood. But I will continue to share and tell my story. Hope you will read it. :)
