What standards are you living on?

LIVE

Posted on | January 5, 2010 | 1 Comment

Sometimes the best way to remind yourself about something is just to talk to someone about it. I've learned pretty much about it in the past few weeks.

Issues huh... haha! Not that I'm a hyper huge emofied tragical issue, but this classic song by Switchfoot really is refreshing. In fact, I think this post is dedicated to people who think they are in those issues.

Meant To Live.

Digest the lyrics, people. =)


*Jon Foreman and Switchfoot during 2006 mou? hahaha!*

Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bid for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live

-----------------------------
Yea, we were MEANT TO LIVE. We were NOT MEANT to die and to give up on hope and life. There is so much more than life other than what THIS WORLD has got to offer, keep seeking and you shall find.

We were meant to live for SO MUCH MORE. Why give up because of one little issue? Why throw away an apple that has one tiny dark spot that can just be cut away?

I've said this before, MAYBE... just MAYBE.... it's time to zoom out and look at the BIG picture? MAYBE.. just MAYBE... you just need Somebody to explain that BIG picture? MAYBE... just MAYBE... that might change your life forever.

JoFan. Have we lost ourselves?

    I want to be in the world, but not of the world and try my best to change the world for His purpose.

    What do you think I am referring to as 'world'?

    This good-looking person you're looking at serves an audience of One, and loves to do that, loves to play, loves writing, loves designing and filming, loves his country ALOT. Syok sendiri very often. L.A.M.E (according to multitudes of friends).

    Seriously serious when he's seriously serious. What? I'm serious!

    Counting On God - Desperation Band
    Joy unspeakable that wont go away,
    With just enough strength to live for today,
    So I never have to worry what tomorrow will bring
    Cuz my faith is on solid rock,
    I am counting on God,
