Living For Something

So I'm living this life, so big and huge and wide and awesome. And it's good; really, really, good. Life's good and everything's goin good and I'm feeling it, just washing over me filling me up and taking me away. This amazing life. And all I have to do is just live it, this life of mine. Each day moves along without any help from me. All i have to do is wake up each morning and take each day as it moves along. Sometimes so fast I'm just skimming the surface, skipping over the bumps that come my way, the good life. And then I'm draggin along, bogged down and feelin hopeless and i turn too slow to miss the big waves and swamped for just a moment until someone finally sees me and pulls me up and over the waves. Those are the moments that just drop down on us until we shake ourselves free. Free to live again and to soar higher than ever before. Gary Allen said it perfect when he sang, "Life ain't always beautiful, but its a beautiful ride." So thats the way I'm living right now. Takin life one day at a time, one hand ready to just reach out grab those moments that i can hold onto forever. Each day, i get up and i'm ready to greet the world, to take the good and bad and search out the little things that make me smile and break into laughter. That's what makes life worth livin, whoever dies with the most crinkles in their smile wins. That and making others smile. So thats what i'm gonna do just live for the smile.
