PROUD

If I knew how to post a song, I would, but I don't, so I'm just going to tell you to look it up on iTunes or something. The song Proud by Richard Niles. It is AMAZING! It is actually the theme song to the Biggest Loser, and I love it. It is my motto lately. I have been trying to ask myself the question that is posed in this song and live up to it. It makes me want to be a better person and take the steps that are necessary to become the person I want to be. Here are the lyrics....

PROUD

I look into the window of my mind,
Reflections of the fears I know I've left behind,
I step out of the ordinary,
I can feel my soul ascending,
I am on my way,
Can't stop me now,
And you can do the same.

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people,
If you make that break for freedom,
What have you done today to make you feel proud?

Still so many answers I don't know,
Realize that to question is how we grow,
So I step out of the ordinary,
I can feel my soul ascending,
I am on my way,
Can't stop me now,
And you can do the same.

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try.
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people,
If you make that break for freedom,
What have you done today to make you feel proud?

We need a change,
Do it today,
I can feel my spirit rising,
We need a change,
So do it today,
'Cause I can see a clear horizon.

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
'Cause you could be so many people,
If you make that break for freedom,
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?

What have you done today?
You could be so many people,
Just make that break for freedom,
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?


Aren't those incredible words!?! And what a poignant question. What have I done today to make myself proud? Recently I have reflected on this question as I write in my journal each night. I ask myself what I've done to make myself proud and write what happened that day. It has been a good way to make sure I'm doing the things that are the most important.

I hope we each do things every day to make ourselves proud!! What have you done?
