"This" by Darius Rucker with Lyrics



One of the best things in the world is finding a song that truly means something to me. Music has the power to change moods, to uplift and enlighten. Or the exact opposite. I have found myself in a dark place lately, and this song by Darius Rucker reminded me how much I am grateful for. I wouldn't change anything. NOT.ONE.THING. Everything that has happened, all the best moments like the first time I met my children, the day Sean and I were sealed, and even the worst times of my life have led me here to this. "This" is what I love. I wouldn't want my life to be any different. If I could wave a magic wand and take away all of the sorrows in my life-I wouldn't do it. I am GRATEFUL for those times. They have made me the person that I am. They have bonded me to my family. They have given me an inner strength that I didn't know I possesed. Sometimes it is hard to have an eternal perspective during the rough patches, so I am grateful for good music that has the ability to remind me of all the good in my life. There is so much of it.

I truly thank Heavenly Father for all the "unanswered prayers" (another amazing song by Garth Brooks) that I might have been so sad about at the time, but He knew what I really needed. He knows everything. He is always watching over me and my family, and has the power to enrich my life beyond measure if I let Him.
