2008 has been tough for a lot of us. For me, I've dealt with a lot of big things this year, but I've also grown more this year than probably any other year in my adult life. 2009 is going to be my year - my year to take care of me, get healthier, achieve greater happiness and deeper faith. For some reason, this old song from the 90s popped into my head this morning and I've already added to my iTunes faves. This will be my theme song of 2009, feel free to make it yours as well...
Semisonic: This Will Be My Year
Thursday's crush is a Friday night rush
And a Monday morning cry
It's the tail that you keep chasing
And it gets away every time
New Years Eve and it's hard to believe
Another Zodiac's gone around
While you drank yourself high on hoping
And watched the ceiling spin from the ground
Counting down from ten it's time
To make your annual prayer
Secret Santa in the sky
When will I get my share
Then you tell yourself
What you want to hear
Cause you have to believe
This will be my year
Pound your fist and cross it off your list
But you know you're not that strong
When the man at the stop light catches you
Singing along to a brand new song
Well maybe it's Trash or the overnight smash that brings a
Ship crashing through your wall
So you can make your grand departure
From a world getting way too small
One wheel in the ditch another
Spinning in the air
Put your pedal down to the floorboards but you're not
Getting anywhere
Then you tell yourself
What you want to hear
Cause you have to believe
This will be my year
