THE PERFECT DAY

Who are you?

Who have you become?

Who tells you what you are?

And what you can be?

Will your past ever be over?

Will you ever be able to let go?

What would it look like if you said, “No”

to everything

and everyone

that would try to limit you?

What would a day look like if you became your authentic self?

What would one day of stillness, acceptance and sacredness look like?

“Innocence” ~ by Avril Lavigne © *

Waking up I see that everything is ok

The first time in my life

And now it's so great

Slowing down

I look around and I am so amazed

I think about the little things that make life great

I wouldn't change a thing about it

This is the best feeling

This innocence is brilliant

I hope that it will stay

This moment is perfect

Please don't go away

I need you now

And I'll hold on to it

Don't you let it pass you by

I found a place so safe

Not a single tear

The first time in my life and now it's so clear

Feel calm

I belong

I'm so happy here

It's so strong

And now I let myself be sincere

I wouldn't change a thing about it

This is the best feeling

It's a state of bliss

You think you're dreaming

It's the happiness inside that you're feeling

It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry

It's a state of bliss

You think you're dreaming

It's the happiness inside that you're feeling

It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry

It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry

This innocence is brilliant

It makes you want to cry

This innocence is brilliance

Please don't go away

Cause I need you now

And I'll hold on to it

Don't you let it pass you by

Think of all of the messages you have been given in your life.

Now, think of only the positive messages.

The messages that told you that you were special.

That you were loved.

That there was only one person in the world wide world just like you.

Messages - that told you that you were wonderful just the way that you are.

Messages - that said that you belonged.

I dream for you – a perfect day.

You deserve it because you are the very imagination of the divine.

“Piece of It All” ~ by Jann Arden © *

right now somebody loves you

right now somebody dreams about you

right now somebody needs you

right now somebody is proud of you

proud of you

right now somebody is calling your name

right now somebody is hoping you’re well

right now somebody is feeling your shame

right now somebody cares if you live

right now somebody hears you

right now somebody knows who you are

right now someone is praying for you

right now someone believes in your heart

right now somebody wants to be your friend

right now somebody is thinking about you

right now someone is wondering where you are

right now you are a piece of it all

a piece of it all

a piece of it all

you are a piece of it all

Imagine your “perfect” day.

Really.

Take a moment, now.

Close your eyes and envision it, in every detail.

“A Perfect Day” ~ by Jann Arden, Richards/Russell Broom © *

You can do it

I know you can

I know you will

You can make it

I know you can get up the hill

You can be anyone you want

Just close your eyes

You can picture a perfect day inside your mind

You’ve gotta pull your head up

Stand your ground and face it all

You’ve gotta hold your heart out to the universe

If you believe in who you are my shining star

If you believe in who you are my shining star

All you weary

All of you on your own

Listen clearly

Follow your voice back home

All you broken

All of you without love

You’ll be fine

You’ll see when the morning comes

You’ve gotta hold your head up

Throw your shoulders through the wall

You’ve gotta count your blessings

Count your lucky days

You’ll never know unless you try

Until you risk it all

If you believe in who you are my shining star

All you weary

All of you on your own

Listen clearly

Follow your voice back home

All you broken

All of you without love

You’ll be fine

You’ll see when the morning comes

All you weary

All of you on your own

Listen clearly

Follow your voice back home

All you broken, all of you without love

You’ll be fine

Wishing you a perfect day.
