Collective Soul Blog Contest

IMPORTANT – EVERY WORD IN RED IS THE TITLE TO A COLLECTIVE SOUL SONG, BUT THIS IS MY TRUE STORY!

LISTEN, this music saved my life. IN A MOMENT EVERYTHING can change and you know your just WASTING TIME. THE WORLD I KNOW had just caved in. My HAPPINESS and my HOME had been torn apart. My GENERAL ATTITUDE was that I was to BLAME. It was as if things were in SLOW motion and this DANDY LIFE was over. 3 children and 10 YEARS LATER he tells me I’m NOT THE ONE. ALL THAT I KNOW is that my CROWDED HEAD kept GIVING into the PRECIOUS DECLARATION that was the LINK IN BETWEEN us. I was having my very own DISCIPLINED BREAKDOWN. I wanted to SCREAM. I DON’T NEED ANYMORE FRIENDS like that. It was so SIMPLE for HIM. ALL he had to do was meet his own NEEDS. He had to RUN without a HEAVY load; NO MORE, NO LESS. AFTERALL, he was BURNING BRIDGES. As my sibling tried to comfort me, SHE SAID SISTER DON’T CRY. THERE’S A WAY, she BOAST for you to feel BETTER NOW. Just TURN AROUND and look at those 3 children. And UNDER HEAVEN’S SKIES, I finally realized HEAVENS ALREADY HERE. LOVE LIFTED ME with a NEW VIBRATION and it FEELS LIKE I’m PERFECT TO STAY. Now I just want those 3 YOUTH to know they are NEVER HERE ALONE. They can always REACH out to me for a COMPLIMENT. They can GENERATE a PERFECT DAY and they are ADORED. It all comes FULL CIRCLE when they SHINE.

Now WHAT I CAN GIVE YOU is some good advise. Gather up all your ENERGY and
RUN to an upcoming show from their new tour http://www.collectivesoul.com/live/. Who knows…it could save your life too! I’ll be COUNTING THE DAYS!
