What if?


A question that puzzles the mind and evokes the soul. Some question material things while others question life itself. How deep do you go to find the right answers you need to know? Most people feel while some people see. SENSE is the word you should be looking for. Sense the answer for feeling comes only from the heart. SENSE incorporates every single cell that lives in the hollow casket of yours. Remember a time when you met someone for the 1st time, you knew somehow if you had good or bad vibes, it was not a feeling but a SENSE. Sensing helps to connect you to yourself. The longest journey that one will ever have to make is between your head to your heart. Sensing gives the courage to face our inner truth. Sometimes we know what we have to do to get to somewhere and it is the lack of courage that gets us nowhere.

I recently heard this song below. Meaningful it is which relates to one of the “what if” in life. Maybe after reading the lyrics, you too may begin to find answers on your own.

The Emancipation of Mimi (2005)
(Ooh, ooh, sweet love, yeah)
I didn't mean it
When I said I didn't love you, soI should have held on tight
I never shoulda let you go
I didn't know nothingI was stupid,
I was foolishI was lying to myself
I could not fathom that
I would everBe without your love
Never imagined I'd beSitting here beside myself
Cause I didn't know you
Cause I didn't know me
But I thought I knew everything
I never felt The feeling that I'm feeling
Now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips
Cause I don't have a choice
Oh, what I wouldn't give
To have you lying by my side
Right here, cause baby(We belong together)

[chorus]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together
Who else am I gon' lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby baby, we belong together
I can't sleep at night
When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Saying to me"If you think you're lonely now"
Wait a minute
This is too deep (too deep)
I gotta change the station
So I turn the dial
Trying to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface"I only think of you"
And it's breaking my heart
I'm trying to keep it together
But I'm falling apart I'm feeling all out of my element
I'm throwing things, crying
Trying to figure out
Where the hell I went wrong
The pain reflected in this song
It ain't even half of whatI'm feeling inside
I need you
Need you back in my life, baby

[chorus]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together Who else am I gon' lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby baby, we belong together, baby

[chorus]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together
Who am I gonna lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh baby, baby
We belong together
