Long Time No Blog

Well hello people.

It's been a while and all I can say is I'm sorry. But I remember what Miss Stacey from Anne of Green Gables said: "Tomorrow is fresh with no mistakes in it yet." So here we go again: The City of Megan and my attempt at chronicling my thoughts and experiences. Well I’ve been having quite a few – let’s call them “interesting” things happen in my life recently which then caused me to reflect on similarly “interesting” things that seem to happen throughout my life no matter what my age or where I’m at. Let’s just say if there is such a thing as unluck, it has decided to befriend me. But what is it they say? Something about acting versus reacting, playing the hand you’re dealt, choosing to be happy… (Maybe it was just Pam who said it instead of the ambiguous “they.”) So to close, I’ll share with you the words to my newest song…

THIS IS ME
Music and Lyrics by Megan Worthen

Sit me down – give me a pen
It’s time to write again
‘Cause I’m done being scared
Being afraid of what I’d say

I’m giving up keeping it in
I want to sing again
And my heart may be broke
But that doesn’t mean I don’t believe

Without a doubt there is only one me
This is me baby
I don’t care what you say
I’m loving my way
And living each day
Don’t try to stop me

With every test I learn a new way
To try and live each day
And learn to love what I got
I can’t waste anymore time being what I’m not

Without a doubt there is only one me
This is me baby
I don’t care what you say
I’m loving my way
And living each day
Don’t try to stop me

When the clouds fill with rain
When my heart is in pain
When I’m left all alone
When I’m feeling so old
When I feel like a fool
When I’m aching and bruised
When I pick myself up
When enough is enough
It’s all part of the plan
I won’t forget who I am
Stop trying to knock me down
I don’t belong on the ground
Just try and stop me

I’ll never stop running this race
But I don’t want second place
They say love is blind
But one of these days you can bet it’ll find

Without a doubt there is only one me
This is me baby
I don’t care what you say
I’m loving my way
And living each day
Don’t try to stop me!

Shake it easy folks. Till next time…
