Roads


Tonight I find myself in a me-lan-cho-ly mood (thanks MegaMind). Life has not been going as planned of late, causing me to truly evaluate the decisions I have previously made and those I still must make. 
It is a strange feeling to finally find myself getting to make a decision purely based on how I feel, what I want (also including Dylan and Goobz). I am 26 years old and have basically made decisions based upon what was necessary in life at the time or more recently, the "grown-up" thing to do, minus a few key moments. And to be quite honest, as exciting as this may seem, from a person who is a typical Type-A personality, bent on pleasing everyone else around me all the time, this feeling is extremely scary and terrifying, not going to lie. 
This song by Chris Mann, my pick for winner of the TV show The Voice last year, spoke to my heart this weekend. I know I go with the promises of God and His faithfulness, but until the decision has been revealed or made, let us walk along the roads....

There are roads in this life that we all travel.
There are scars and there are battles where we roam. 
When we are lost or wherever we may go, 
They will always lead you home

There are roads that have lead me to another
To a friend or to a lover I have known.
For every turn is a year that I have grown,
As I walk along these roads

Some are long and some are weathered.
Some will lead you through a storm.
When you’ve gone astray you will find your way,
As you walk along these roads

There were times when I stumbled and I wondered.
But every choice and every step I don’t regret,
Cause I have lived and I have loved like no other.
I won’t fear what lies ahead.

Some are long and some are weathered.
Some will lead you through a storm.
When you’ve gone astray you will find your way,
As you walk along these roads

There are roads in this life that I have traveled.
There are scars and there are battles, these I know,
Cause I’d be lost but no matter where I go,
They will one day lead me home.
They will one day lead me home.
