Good morning my gorgeous darlins! I was driving to work today and heard the song “Live Like You're Dying” by Tim McGraw and it got me to thinking… Today has to be the day my loves. Whatever is hurting you, whatever is holding you back you have to let go. Embrace the positive. There are those who will sludge through misery, be bogged down by real and imagined offences, and bath in negativity, but you don’t have to be one of those. Grab onto love, and live everyday to the fullest! Reach for the stars my darlings! You were created to be victorious. You were created to be a warrior. Grab your dreams. Smash your goals because you are worthy. You are special as you are, but you are an ever changing masterpiece and you can achieve whatever your heart desires. And my darlings you are gorgeous, sexy, hot and just plain stunning. You are beautiful beyond description and you are a winner. I am not asking for your friendship or you to like me. I am not asking anything at all from you, but that you see you as I do… A capable, elegant, gorgeous, sexy, sweet, intelligent, funny, perfect but ever changing master-piece.
Loving & Cherishing you,
A Texas cowboy

    I first heard that song when I was pregnant, and a disaster of emotions. Had to pull over while I was driving because I was crying. I thought I was so silly at the time. And despite not being pregnant anymore, when I do hear it now, it's still makes me tear up a bit.

    I happened to hear it about a week ago, right after we found out my dad has stage 3c colon cancer. It's likely he is dying. Song has a much different meaning to me now.

    I really needed this. I've been at my wits end dealing alone with two cranky sick little boys alone since my husband left for the weekend to help out his critically ill elderly parents. But your post made me remember this song and it's helping my attitude change. Instead of being upset at the situation I can rejoice in the fact that I have 2 amazing little boys. I'd rather have them sick & cranky than not at all.
