My Wish for You
I don’t know if you have heard the song My Wish by Rascal Flatts or not. I hope you have. If you haven’t, I have enclosed the lyrics in this email with a hyperlink to the band at the top.
I learned about it 2012 when we, the staff of Summit High School, sang it to the graduating seniors for that year. My daughter reintroduced it to me on the way to a speaking engagement we had on Monday.
I have listened to it every day since. I absolutely love it. The song writers had you in mind when they wrote this song. How do I know? Because, it explains exactly how I feel about you and your loved ones.
Take a moment and enjoy the song. My wish for you is that you can feel my love flow from my heart to yours. My wish for you is that you relax and spend some time loving yourself and your life. You don’t have to do it for the rest of your life. Just try it today and if you enjoy it. You can do it again tomorrow and maybe even the next day. No pressure. Just love.
I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you wanna go,
And if you’re faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin’ till you find the window,
If it’s cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile.
But more than anything, more than anything
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
I hope you never look back, but you never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you live,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God’s grace, in every mistake,
And always give more than you take.
But more than anything, yeah, more than anything
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish. Yeah, yeah.
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish (my wish, for you).
This is my wish (my wish, for you)
I hope you know somebody loves you (my wish, for you).
May all your dreams stay big (my wish, for you)
