Simple (Wo)Man

Life is tough. Especially with today's problems. Although we have many luxuries that people did not have back in the day, with the spiraling economy and overwhelming political information, it can make things seem bleak and a little scary.
But today I decided, that I am not going to let that stuff get to me anymore. Right here and now, things are great in my life. I couldn't be more thankful. So, I am not going to worry about the future. For once in my life, I am going to stop thinking there has to be a plan for everything, because then all I seem to do is think about the plan, the future. I wanna live in the moment. I wanna enjoy life, the life that is happening here and now. God tells us to give our problems to him, and that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm no longer going to worry about things I can't change. I'm gonna focus on being a good Christian, also on being a good wife and person.
All I need is God and my simple life with my husband to get by.

Below is a link to a song that I hold dearly to my heart. I know I am not a man, but the lyrics to the song could apply to anyone.

Lynrd Skynyrd - Simple Man

Lyrics :
Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this it'll help you some sunny day

Oh, take your time don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
Go find a woman you'll find love
And don't forget son there is someone up above

And be a simple kind of man
Be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son if you can?

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you my son is to be satisfied

And be a simple kind of man
Be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son if you can? Oh yes, I will

Boy, don't you worry you'll find yourself
Follow your heart and nothing else
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you my son is to be satisfied

And be a simple kind of man
Be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son if you can?

Baby be a simple, be a simple man
Be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
