Tugs at my heart strings

I love being me! I love knowing that there is a grand plan for me that will help me to be with my loving Father in Heaven, and to be with my family for eternity! That knowledge brings me such great comfort. It helps me not to stress, and to appreciate all that I have right now in my life. 

There is a song that I really listened to the other day. It is called "There's a Place for Us", performed by Carrie Underwood. It was featured on one of the Narnia movies. The words are so powerful, and so moving. I know that I am special, and not forgotten, and that I am a queen with divine potential to be all that I can be. My favorite line is: "...exactly who we are is just enough..." Sooo true! We don't need to be someone else, we are all unique, with special spirits, placed on this Earth at this time to bless those around us. 
We all need to be us!

 
Here are the lyrics:

There's a place out there for us,
more than just a prayer or anything you've ever dreamed of.
So if you feel like giving up cause you don't fit in down here,
fear is crashing in, close your eyes and take my hand.

We can be the kings and queens of anything if we believe.
It's written in the stars that shine above,
a world where you and I belong, where faith and love will keep us strong,
exactly who we are is just enough
there's a place for us, there's a place for us.

When the water meets the sky,
where your heart is free and hope comes back to life,
when these broken hands are whole again,
well will find what we've been waiting for,
we were made for so much more

We can be the kings and queens of anything if we believe.
It's written in the stars that shine above,
a world where you and I belong, where faith and love will keep us strong,
exactly who we are is just enough,
there's a place for us, there's a place for us

So hold on, now hold on,
there's a place for us

We can be the kings and queens of anything if we believe.
It's written in the stars that shine above,
a world where you and I belong, where faith and love will keep us strong,
exactly who we are is just enough, exactly who we are is just enough,
there's a place for us.
