| | I Don't Want To Be- Gavin Degraw | ] | So here we are again Livejournal... another year- and yet another post. It's crazy to think that so much has been posted here. So many words, so many feelings, emotions, and thoughts. Even though there has been much said, there is still so much that has been left unsaid as well.
I never feel fully safe, or secure enough to say what I need to say in fear of someone getting hurt by my words. Even here. I know that this journal doesn't get as much traffic flow as it once did- but, I know there are still a few stragglers... Who come around every once and a while.
Maybe- one day- I will be able to allow my words to ring out like gunshots in the night. Or, a song that gets stuck in your head all day; no matter how hard you try to remove it.
I want my words to matter, I want what I say in this journal and even in my everyday life to matter.
I think that's what everyone wants in the end- to matter. To make an impact. To change something that seems impossible. To leave a legacy I guess.
Funny thing is- we all leave legacies. We all leave impacts. Every word you say, every little thing you do, it sticks with a person. A song comes on the radio and it may remind someone of you, or a phrase in a book or, a simple salutation from a friend.
We are all on a journey and we all have words to use and to impact people. So don't take your words for granted. Don't take your life and your story for granted.
Your story matters.
In Him, Amy Elizabeth
