Songs that make you think

Sometimes while I listen to my iPod while walking or doing some house chores, there comes a song along that makes you think. With over 8000 songs on my iPod, it tends to happen a bit more often, especially since I am used to think a lot about stuff. I want to know how things work and why I have certain thoughts about things. When I have an opinion about something I always want to be sure that I can explain exactly why I have that opinion. Why I believe more in that than anything else. Maybe it is just some silly thing that makes me who I am. But I guess most people who read this do know me a bit longer than since yesterday and may recognize what I am saying (technically writing, I know) here.

So well, back to the song that I heard. It was a song by Delta Goodrem called Angels in the Room. I will post the lyrics here before proceeding with my "story".

I know there's something here
There's more than meets the eye
More strange more beautiful
Than these words can describe

Don't know how I got here
The past has come and gone
I just know I have found
The place my heart belongs

And I want to stay
I feel safe here in your light
This must be what heaven's like
Must be angel's in the room tonight

So much here in this world
I'll never understand
I'll have to learn to trust
I'll do the best I can

All the mistakes I've made
The wrong turns on this road
Have only led me to your arms
And all I know

I want to stay
I feel safe in your light
This must be what heaven's like
Must be angels in the room
Oh can you feel it too
Must be angels in the room tonight

I was vacuming the livingroom while this song played and it made me think how lucky I am. Yeah, I have had my share of problems, but still... I live in a good house with two people that I love till death and we have a wonderful sweet dog that I hope to be able to hug and love for many more years to come. These words that make this song are so powerful, so touching and so true. If you don't know this artist or song, I would recommend you make your way to your favorite music store and check it for: Delta Goodrem.

Ok, now I will write some more about what I've done last night, besides posting video's on my blog. While I was busy posting and checking out video's, I was also on Skype with Steph. And later we were joined by Joyce. Joyce and I have gotten Steph the PERFECT birthday present! I saw a commercial about it on TV and immediately thought: WOW THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GONNA GET HER! So we made arrangements and told Steph she needed to take December 18th off from work. I know we're planning way ahead, but the thing we're going to is only in the Netherlands for 4 days. And seeing the 18th is a Friday, we thought that would be easiest to take off from work. Since then we can take it easy and enjoy the weekend afterwards. Otherwise you will have to take another workday off afterwards as well or feel like sh*t and go to work after the thing we're going to. I just hope she'll like it and I hope we're going to like it as well, seeing the three of us are going together with Steph. We are giving the present also on behalf of the three of us, otherwise it would be a bit too expensive and Steph would go bouncing all evening long if she'd found out... like this or like this and then she would tell the one person that he or she is totally insane. Well, since all three of us do qualify for the insane job, we thought it'd best if we'd all skip in and take Steph along with us for her birthday. The only thing is that she'll have to wait over 7 months before she can finally (and hopefully) enjoy her present. Hopefully I have made her quite curious now (and made some of the other readers as well).

It's almost noon and I will make myself something to eat now. Chance is comfy sleeping in her bed and I have to change the DVD disc. I am watching House MD season 3 now. Last week I saw an episode of season 2 with Adam Busch in it. His character told House he was fantasising about cows. We (Joyce and I) had to laugh so hard since it was just hilarious and ever since I am wondering how much Adam got teased by Amber when he had to practise his lines. I imagine her making many silly cow noises behind Adams back all the time...

Ah well, I'm off for now. Ta-ta and I'll be back everyone!
