Jesus, Take the Wheel(James/Lindsey/Sampson) - Lyrics

She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati
On a snow white Christmas Eve
Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy with the baby in the backseat
Fifty miles to go and she was running low on faith and gasoline
It'd been a long hard year
She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention
She was going way too fast
Before she knew it she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glass
She saw both their lives flash before her eyes
She didn't even have time to cry
She was sooo scared
She threw her hands up in the air

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel

It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder
And the car came to a stop
She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat sleeping like a rock
And for the first time in a long time
She bowed her head to pray
She said I'm sorry for the way
I've been living my life
I know I've got to change
So from now on tonight

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on

Ooh, Jesus take the wheel
Ooh, I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
From this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel
Ooh, take it, take it from me
Ooh ooh wah ah ooh ooh ooh

Carrie Underwood's - Jesus, Take The Wheel

A friend of mine sent me this video clip and I really like it.

Letting go is hard to do but sometimes we've got no choice... but it does get easier once we let go.

Hope you like it too.

"Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you're gonna get..." (Forest Gump)

Isn't it true? That's what makes life so difficult. When we think we've got it under control, it throws another one at us. We're constantly trying to juggle and make sense of our world and the events of our lives. Even if we play it safe, there's always something that is beyond our control... like the recent US credit & housing crisis, financial crisis, stockmarket meltdown, economic slowdown, recession, depression, ... whatever you want to call it. Then there's the unexpected war, bushfire, flood, tsunami, accidents, mass shooting, sudden rage of violence or simply just your partner walking out. The news is plastered with abuse and tragedies of all sorts that we sometimes fail to prevent or cannot prevent.

How do we cope when something like that happens to us?

How do we cope even with the seemingly little things in our own personal world that doesn't get plastered on the news. Things like work bully at our workplace, our rocky relationships, our unruly and disrespectful children, loneliness, mental illness or things just falling apart for us.

We will touch on those issues and whatever else that is relevant to having a beautiful mind.
