Jason Castro - Somewhere Over The Rainbow - Studio Version

I absolutely love this song because it mixes two of the greatest songs together - "somewhere over the rainbow" and "what a wonderful world"...plus I love the ukulele, it would be fun to learn how to play =)

This original rendition is by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, this video is a cover of his rendition by Jason Castro =)

~*~Free~*~

Francesca Battistelli sings a song entitled "Free to be Me"...some of the lyrics are:

But You've already won the battle
And You've got great plans for me
Though I can’t always see
'Cause I got a couple dents in my fender
Got a couple rips in my jeans
Try to fit the pieces together
But perfection is my enemy
On my own I'm so clumsy
But on Your shoulders I can see
I'm free to be me

Everyone is their own person and is free to be themselves. You don't have to be like anyone else, you are free to be you. You don't need to conform to other people; its okay to be different cause hey if everyone was the same it would be really boring. God knows who you are, and who you were born to be. He created you a special way - unlike anyone else. He has great plans for you - even if you cannot see.

Daily Affirmation: Some people realize that they are happiest when they act as they truly want to be.

~*~ Radiate Sunshine ~*~

The dictionary defines "sunshine" as "brightness or radiance, cheerfulness and happiness - a source of cheer or happiness" and to "radiate" is to "extend, spread, emit". Therefore radiate sunshine - spread happiness.

One blog too many....

Unfortunately I am one of those people who starts a bunch of different things...but never really gets around to finishing them. This is about blog number...hmm...5? maybe? haha, but I am turning over a new leaf...this blog is going to be kept up =) Its a place where I can document exciting things going on in my life! As you can see from the title "Sunshine on a Cloudy Day" the main focus of my blog is going to be a ray of sunshine and the pursuit of happiness. I am all for positivity, and I believe that people who radiate positive thoughts and actions gain them in return...karma. The past few weeks I have been falling out of my positive ways, and this blog is here to keep me accountable =) Happy blogging!!
