This blog really has nothing to do with England, but this song has truly touched me. Below I listed the lyrics to a song I have recently been exposed to (thanks to LB) and whenever I find a that rocks my world, it's not enough for me to just listen to it, I have to share it or I feel incomplete. Don't try to interpret what my meaning was right there (again, LB), because half of what I say is meaningless-- according to the Beatles. Anyway, here, give yourself a little nifty gifty and take part in something glorious. Your soul should sing for 3 minutes, 17 seconds approximately... If not, I happen to be a part time life coach and would love to offer my advice and/or additional services for a one-time fee of $4000 plus an additional $200/hour (just ask my boss, Jack, if you need a promising reference). I order you to pull this up on youtube since the lyrics are only a quarter of any song:

Doubting Thomas by Nickel Creek
What will be left when I've drawn my last breath
Besides the folks I've met and the folks who've known me
Will I discover a soul-saving love
Or just the dirt above and below me
I'm a doubting Thomas
I took a promise
But I do not feel safe
Oh me of little faith
Sometimes I pray for a slap in the face
Then I beg to be spared cause I'm a coward
If there's a master of death
I bet he's holding his breath
As I show the blind and tell the deaf about his power
I'm a doubting Thomas
I can't keep my promises
Cause I don't know what's safe
Oh me of little faith
Can I be used to help others find truth
When I'm scared I'll find proof that it's a lie
Can I be led down a trail dropping bread crumbs
That prove I'm not ready to die
Please give me time to decipher the signs
Please forgive me for time that I've wasted
I'm a doubting Thomas
I'll take your promise
Though I know nothin's safe
Oh me of little faith
PS- Cinco dias mas...
PPS- If you are a close friend and feel neglected by my lack of communication, please consider accepting my apologies. I'm flying by the seat of my pants here in a desperate attempt to call you all within the next few days, if only to refresh the memory of your sweet, melodic voices, but family, work and packing are priorities as well. So, hang tight.
MMKAY, 24 online is calling my name... mindless activity is good for you. Something to think about.
