Thought for the Day:

"Sometimes the angel you want is not the angel you get"

Iyanla Vanzant said this. She was talking about being stuck in your life and looking for change and knowing that you need change. Her point was that sometimes the thing you think you are looking for.....the thing or the person that you think should be in your life....sometimes that thing or person is not what you get. Sometimes the thing that moves us along to change does not come in the form we thought it should.

Maybe the universe or God knows what we need better than we know ourselves.

Iyanla also says that you need to keep questioning the universe and the things that are set before you. Is it possible that your "angel" has already come into your life? Have you missed or overlooked an opportunity for change and growth?

Something to think about. Maybe your angel is closer than you think.

I didn't think that I liked this song at first, but it's been on my mind constantly this week. Once I gave it a listen, it reminded me of a friend that has also been on my mind recently. I know this person is going though some rough times recently and my emails have gone unanswered...which makes me worry. But, I imagine that he will surface again...as always...with an incredible story of where he's been for all this time. Wishing him well.............

Good is good and bad is bad
You don't know which one you had
She put your books out on the sidewalk
Now they're blowing 'round
They won't help you when you're down

Love's on your list of things to do
To bring your good luck back to you
And if you think that everything's unfair
Would you care if you're the last one standing there

And everytime you hear the rolling thunder
You turn around before the lightening strikes
And does it ever make you stop and wonder
If all your good times have passed you by

I don't hold no mystery
But I can show you how to turn the key
Cause all I know is where I started
So downhearted
And that's not where you want to be


When the day is done
And the world is sleeping
And the moon is on its way to rise
When your friends are gone
You thought were so worth keeping
You feel you don't belong
And you don't know why

And everytime you hear the rolling thunder
You turn around before the lightening strikes
And does it ever make you stop and wonder
If all your good times have passed you by

When the day is done
And the world is sleeping
And the moon is on its way to rise
When your friends are gone
You thought were so worth keeping
You feel you don't belong
Neither do I
