Defying Gravity

A few things for today::
Number one - today marks my tenth year with the same Man, who I am PROUD to call my husband! Happy "Decade Day", Babe! Love you! XoXo

My high school Graduation

Number two - after listening to my Glee soundtrack, I found a song that hits home {as of late}. It is a show tune, and I am not afraid to admit that I LOVE the theatre and Broadway! And it is from 'Wicked'. Which I have yet to see, but really want to...I am getting off track! The song hits home, because at this moment in time I can relate to the lyrics whole-hardily. So without further adieu, here it is, "Defying Gravity"
{at least an excerpt from it, as performed on Glee}:

"Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes: and leap!

It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you can't pull me down!

I'm through accepting limits
'cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost!
I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity..."

  2. Congrats!! Ten years...that's 87,600 hours you've been together... I love that!!
    Speaking of that song, I cried like a baby when I saw this live. Edina Menzel was amazing....watch it on youtube...or download the real version, Glee really didn't do this song justice.

    :O)

  5. Happy Decade! How beautiful - that gives me hope that I can find someone to be with for that long! :)

    Don't worry - I am IN LOVE with Broadway as well :P That is one of the BEST songs out there - I don't blame you for identifying with it so much! Plus, Chris Colfer is a great singer for that song!
