one of my favorite songs.....

I AM WOMAN
Helen Reddy

I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again

CHORUS
Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman

You can bend but never break me
'cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul

CHORUS

I am woman watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my lovin' arms across the land
But I'm still an embryo
With a long long way to go
Until I make my brother understand

Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to I can face anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman
Oh, I am woman
I am invincible
I am strong

FADE
I am woman
I am invincible
I am strong
I am woman

Missed opportunity:(

Was suppose to meet my sister in Cebu yesterday....
In my mind I was planning a vacation with my mom and my son...
probably another sister in tow..
a perfect opportunity to make my mom and my sister happy...
but it didn't happen... I felt bad:(
I was really hoping to spend some time with my sister... I missed her so much...
And being out there on her own.... struggling with the everyday hassles of life...I really wanted to see her smile..I really felt so down yesterday....If only
I had enough money to bring my mom and my son,,,I know that somehow I could make them all happy....(even for a few days) well... thats life!!!
It s#cks!!! and I have to do something about it.... I have to turn things around....I have to work hard .....Things like this makes me more inspired...???challenged..???hopeful..?? oh heck!!! whatever term that is...
What I truly want is to make my family smile again....
Without our dad I know things will always be difficult ....
But striving to make things work again....be complete... be hopeful of the future...
I know somehow I CAN MAKE IT.....
and these missed opportunities??!!!!
Ahhhhh.... it will never happen again....:)
