Ignite your light!

"Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again

Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in

Do you ever feel already buried deep
Six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that there's still a chance for you
Cause there's a spark in you

You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y" - Katy Perry


Some songs just get stuck in your head.  At least this one is inspirational and therefore can play over and over in my head, until I believe it.  I think that sometimes it is a good thing to feel like you are just drifting around, as we then find the inspiration to become that firework and make something truly extraordinary of our lives. 

We all want our lives to be extraordinary and spectacular like fireworks lighting up the sky.  To get there we need to shift our minds and believe that we can be what we were meant to be.  I have read some articles about spectacular people, like Raymond Ackerman and Nelson Mandela.  They have one thing in common and that is perseverance.  No matter what life threw at them, they persevered and made their lives into fireworks.  They are also humble and people are of utmost importance to them.  To light our fire we need people.  How wonderful is a firework show with no one to watch?  Have people in our lives lifts us up and helps us to persevere.

Let's all sing...."Baby your a firework...."
