Troy and I have been working hard this summer with our first venture into the property investment world. We have also pushed ourselves to be more disciplined with the boys as they get older. These tasks along with the daily stress' of life can sometimes become well...overwhelming. I find ourselves giving each other pep talks on a daily basis. No we aren't whining to one another just simply expressing our feelings and allowing each other to vent. And Thank God that we can vent to one another. There is no better cheerleader in my life than my husband. He is a good man to me and father to my sons.
Often I reference Christian lyrics, but not today. I was toggling through the ipod and came across this oldie but goodie! Jack Johnson..Better Together. And truly Troy and I are a better team than we are individuals. Its always better when we are together. My favorite line from the song is "It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving; I'll tell you one thing, it's so much better when we're together"
Here are the full lyrics in case you aren't wanting to watch the video!
Better Together by Jack Johnson
There is no combination of words I could put on the postcard
And no song that I could sing, but I can try because this is your heart and this is
Our dreams and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia-toned loving
Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart, like
Why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing, it's so much better when we're together
Mmm, so much better when we're together
Yeh, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well it's so much better when we're together
Yeh, it's so much better when we're together
All of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see
They'll be gone too, to many things I have to do
But follow these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression, I was somewhere in between
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now
Yeh, so much better when we're together
Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's so much better when we're together
Yeh, so much better when we're together
I believe in memories because they look so,
So pretty when I sleep
And when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together
We so much better when we're together
We so much better when we're together
