Let It Be

Nick and I have a few "theme songs". You know, the one that the lyrics had to have been written modeling your life because there is no other way someone could have gotten things that dead on? Or maybe it's just a song that makes you happy? Or reminds you of a certain place and time? So what if I have songs that cover all three and some that have categories of their own? Anyways, this song is one that I've decided would be a good one for me to live by.

A little prologue as to why this song rocks my world:
As many of you may or may not know, I find so much joy in taking care of other people. Most importantly, my friends and family. I am a perfectionist in my school work. I try to be the best I can be all of the time which I don't think in an of itself is a problem, but sometimes it grows to be one.
I have always had a hard time with trying my absolute hardest and it still not being enough. We've all been there and had that feeling of being incompetent. Never a fun thing but there is something I've realized largly to Nick's cretit.
Sometimes you need to just let it be. Sometimes there are things you can't control. Sometimes there are things you can't do. Sometimes people might not like you. Sometimes there aren't enough hours in the day. Sometimes somebody might be better than you. I'm learning that I need to forget about those things that I can't control and just let it be.

When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom. Let it be.
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me.
Speaking words of wisdom. Let it be.

And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer. Let it be.
For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer. Let it be.
And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow. Let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music. Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom. Let it be.

Let it be. Let it be. Let it be. Let it be.
There will be an answer. Let it be.
Let it be. Let it be. Let it be. Let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom. Let it be
