Grateful Post..

Good Morning OH'ers..  It's FRIDAY! ! 

I know it has been a while since I posted a Grateful post so I thought I would post one today.  I am not sure if it will be a daily post although we all have something to be grateful for daily so someone please continue this post.

I am grateful..

That God is a great God and he gives you as many chances as we need to get it right.

For the great alcohol rehab center, where I have been the past three months, that has given me a new start on life..

That I know that people that live in glass houses should not throw stones.  By the way I am not throwing any stones..

For the love and support of two of the greatest women God placed on this Earth.  Debra and Yvonne I will always love you two..

For the knowledge and understanding, of my addiction, given to me in those three months..

For my three months of sobriety.  It is the longest I have had since I relapsed.  Now all I have to do is live life on life's terms daily.

SONGS OF THE WEEK

STAND BACK UP BY SUGARLAND

Go ahead and take your best shot,
Let 'er rip, give it all you've got,
I'm laid out on the floor, but I've been here before,
I may stumble, yeah I might fall,
Only human aren't we all?
I might lose my way, but hear me when I say,

I will stand back up,
You'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid, and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up,

I've been beaten up and bruised,
I've been kicked right off my shoes,
Been down on my knees more times than you'd believe,
When the darkness tries to get me,
There's a light that just won't let me,
It might take my pride, and my tears may fill my eyes,
But I'll stand back up,

I've weathered all these storms,
But I just turn them into wind, so I can fly,
What don't kill you makes you stronger,
When I take my last breath,
That's when I'll just give up,

So, go ahead and take your best shot,
Let 'er rip, give it all you've got,
You might win this round but you can't keep me down,

'Cause I'll stand back up,
And you'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up,

You'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up.


THE DANCE BY GARTH BROOKS

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars alone
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have chanced it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain but I'd of had to miss the dance.
