Ode to Iraq and the desert sand

Five months away
Feels like the whole world should've changed
But I'm home now
And things still look the same
I think I'll leave it till next month to unpack
Try to forget for a while
That I'm back in DC, on the road
Where the cars never stop going through the night
To a life where I can't watch sunrise
I don't have time
I don't have time

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to
I know I said goodbye
...but I wanna see you again

(~ Dido, with some edits from me =P)

Quote of the Day

To have a right to do a thing is not at all the same as to be right in doing it.

~ GK Chesterton

Waiting on Tomorrow

I don't want to let my life fly by
Did you ever stop to wonder why?
Ever stop to wonder, wonder why?

And time stands still when no one understands you
When you don't quite understand yourself
But just know this that God is faithful
Even if you don't have faith yourself

Today didn't have to be this way
Tomorrow is another day
Another chance to make things right
A chance to make sense of last night

I don't want to let my life fly by
Do you ever stop, stop to wonder why?
