I love this song by Hoobastank. The words speak from and to my heart.
I find it amazing to have a reason to make us decide to change to be better us.
I find it amazing that no matter how hard we find life is, how hard people try to put us down, how much people love us or how hard it is to make a change within ourselves, we still try to do it.
I find it amazing to be loved and accepted the way we are. But even more amazing that we accept our not-so-perfect-selves the way we are.
I find it amazing to have others care about us. But even more amazing to care about others even if they don't care about us.
I find it amazing to have someone to support us no matter what. But even more amazing to support ourselves despite the lack of support from others.
The reason
I'm not a perfect person
There's many thing I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
And the reason is you
And the reason is you
And the reason is you
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
Sincerely,
The leaping koala :)
