So, I had a rough and good day. Started rough, well till about 6 it was rough. Then it got better – football was on and Shaun had entered the building… LOL… But this blog is going to be shorter than most – just a thought. Today I work I was listening to my ipod. And I am purposely skipping songs that might make me sad. So, I decided that I was gonna listen to “Soul Sister”, by Train. Upbeat and happy, right? I thought so. Until I listened – really listened. I could sing this song to Shaun, and he could sing it to me – and the lyrics described us to a tee. The line that made me cry hard was this:
“The way you can cut a rug
Watching you is the only drug I need
So gangster, I’m so thug
You’re the only one I’m dreaming of
You see I can be myself now finally
In fact there’s nothing I can’t be
I want the world to see you’ll be with me”
Watching you is the only drug I need
So gangster, I’m so thug
You’re the only one I’m dreaming of
You see I can be myself now finally
In fact there’s nothing I can’t be
I want the world to see you’ll be with me”
If you know Shaun and me – that was us. All the way… but the whole song… Made me laugh and cry. Because I realized, although I lost him – I HAD him. He was mine. In love with me. No one else. And he sung to me. He kissed me. He laid my pajamas out. He knew what I needed before I knew. I was his “Soul Sister”. And he was my world. He still is. I am not one for posting videos, etc. in a blog – but if you haven’t heard it – Listen to it. And think of how blessed I am that I feel this way about him, and vice versa. Then say a quick prayer – not only for me, but my kids, and anyone else who has suffered a loss.
