Love Sacrifices

You gotta go where you wanna go,
Do what you wanna do
With whoever you wanna do it with.
You gotta go where you wanna go,
And do what you wanna do
With whoever you wanna do it with.

You don’t understand
That a girl like me can love just one man.
Three thousand miles, that’s how far you’ll go.
And you said to me “Please don’t follow”.

Cause you gotta go where you wanna go
And do what you wanna do
With whoever you wanna do it with.
Babe, you gotta go where you wanna go
And do what you wanna do
With whoever you wanna do it with.

You don’t understand
That a girl like me can love just one man.
You’ve been gone a week, and I tried so hard
Not to be the crying kind –
Not to be the girl you left behind.

You gotta go where you wanna go
And do what you wanna do
With whoever you wanna do it with.
You gotta go where you wanna go (Go where you want)
And do what you wanna do (Do what you want)
With whoever you wanna do it with.
You gotta go where you wanna go (Go where you want)
And do what you wanna do (Do what you want)
With whoever you wanna do it with.

I love when I get songs for our message and then have to go ferret out the “meat of the message.” I’m glad my friend, Jody, was here to help me with this one because I didn’t know who sang this song. She knew the time frame which really helped.

The message is simpler and quite clear. We are all here for a purpose. We all have a life purpose that needs to be our first priority. There is always some sacrifice, challenges and lessons that inherently come with it. Sometimes that means leaving people we love behind, emotionally and/or physically.

Our message today is for us who are seemingly being left behind. If we love someone, truly love them, we love them enough to let them go. This message is not just about lovers. It is about friends. It is about parents and children. It is about neighbors. It is about teachers and students. True love loves enough to let go when it knows it must.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Listen to your love.

-A cold sleeping night.

-A beautiful sunny day.

-Soooo proud of my grandchildren. They were such a great help at school.

-AJ’s great idea. Him and his sister should pool their money and invest it.
