The group Switchfoot has a song, "Live It Well," (from their upcoming album) which plays itself over and over and over in my head... You're singing it now aren't you? [aside...There is a reason I use the hashtag, #thereisalwaysasonginmyhead when I post song lyrics on Instagram, btw.]
Live It Well...meaning this life I've been given by the Creator Giver of all life.
The beginning of the chorus,
"Life is short; I wanna live it well. One life, one story to tell,"
is the reason it plays over and over in my head...but it's the second verse which begins with
"I wanna sing with all my heart a lifelong song;
Even if some notes come out right
and some come out wrong"
that makes me reflect on my wrong notes and how, hopefully, I've changed because I learned not to keep singing those wrong notes, and that, yes, it is okay to have belted out some wrong notes amidst the right ones. It's those wrong notes which serve to help me learn how to sing a lifelong song that will produce a sound pleasing to those who listen for it and hear it, especially to my Father God, who is ultimately the One I desire to please and glorify through the lifelong song that is my life.
