Yeah, it’s alright. It’s only the world.

Yesterday, I got a little time to myself. No hubby, no kids. No “Mommy, Mommy!“ (I mean, don’t get me wrong, I dearly love my husband and kids, but I could use a break every few months!)
After some quality “R and R,” I did something I hadn’t done in quite a while. I cut loose from the worries and stresses of life for a few minutes and had a little dance session! I turned up the music, danced around, and sang to the top of my lungs! It felt so liberating! There was no one there to laugh at me, no one there trying to be heard over the music, and no one there competing for my attention. Nope, it was just me and the tunes. (Well, I take that back…the dog was there, but she didn’t care. She raised her head a little, looked at me like I’d finally lost it, and then she went back to sleep).

Only The World
By: Mandisa
Been a hard one
Been a bad one
Been a tough one
Been a sad one
It’s been just one of those days
That keeps chipping away at my heart
Nothin’ new here
It’s what I do here
It’s a stereotypical day in the life
I’m surrounded by all of the pain and the strife
But I know it’s alright
‘Cause it’s only the world I’m living in
It’s only today I’ve been given
There ain’t no way I’m giving in
‘Cause it’s only the world
I know the best is still yet to come
‘Cause even when my days in the world are done
There’s gonna be so much more than only the world for me
Anybody, do you hear me?
Do you feel me?
I mean do you feel me?
I know I’m not the only one wearing the weight of this world
We got problems, said it’s alright
Just remember, yeah it’s alright
Take a good look around
We’re just stuck on the ground for a little while
Don’t it make you smile
Heaven is a place
Where the tears on every face will be wiped away
Oh and I can’t wait to go
But for now, it’s enough to know
This is only temporary
