Taking a “Leap Of Faith”, or Building that “Bridge Of Hope” ?
What to you say to takin’ chances?
There are times in our life when we completely lose hope and feel like we’re stranded on a road to nowhere. We’ve been drained and rejected and we’re withdrawn. And there’s no way around that.
So what do you do in times like these? Do you take a Leap Of Faith? Or you build a Bridge Of Hope?
Celine Dion’s Taking Chances, is an amazing rendition of this emotion. Let’s explore ❤
Don’t know much about your life
Don’t know much about your world, but
Don’t want to be alone tonight
On this planet they call earth
Sometimes we are so alone, that we feel at home with strangers. Sometimes we get so lonely, strangers become our comfort.
The stranger might not even have any idea about us. Or how unpredictable our future is right now. But maybe we’re heading too strong in this relationship; and maybe this relationship won’t last.
You don’t know about my past, and
I don’t have a future figured out
And maybe this is going too fast
And maybe it’s not meant to last
But what do you say to taking chances
What do you say to jumping off the edge
Never knowing if there’s solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay
What do you say?
At such times, the dilemma of taking chances or not, really messes with us. To be wanting to just take a leap of faith, even without knowing if there’s any fallback option or not. And you really want that other person to give into this leap of yours.
I just want to start again
And maybe you could show me how to try
And maybe you could take me in
Somewhere underneath your skin
The urge to start-over is so humungous that we keep convincing them to be by our side and let us in their hearts again.
And I had my heart beating down
But I always come back for more, yeah
There’s nothing like love to pull you up
When you’re laying down on the floor there
So talk to me, talk to me
Like lovers do
Yeah walk with me, walk with me
Like lovers do
We become enslaved by our thoughts of our survival depending on the love we receive from the outside world.
You expect love to fix you. You expect your love to return back to you!
After a failure in love, we do take time to swing back into the space of love and affection. But, loneliness can be often be killing.
Thus, we are left to decide for ourselves. That do we want to take time, or simply jump into another relationship ?
Do you take a Leap Of Faith? Or you build a Bridge Of Hope?
