when somebody loves you
there's nothing you can't do
when somebody loves you
it's easy to get through
when somebody loves you
This may sound a tad silly, but I really do have that "Nothing I can't do" attitude when I know there's someone who loves me no matter what. I'm more willing to try things I might not succeed at because I know that if it doesn't turn out the way I want it to that someone who loves me will give me a hug and tell me it's okay. And in that moment it really is okay. All the other stuff doesn't matter. Not one bit.
And I'm not talking about my new "Fuck it." attitude. That's only for stuff that doesn't matter, meaning stuff that runs a risk of only temporary embarrassment. What I'm talking about here is the important stuff. The big life decisions, career moves, and what-not. Those matter, and I can't just say "Fuck it." if it goes wrong. When something important like that goes wrong the only thing that helps is someone who can make me feel that "I don't want this to ever end" feeling, because that's the only feeling that can make everything else go away.
By the way, the lyrics are from an Alan Jackson song, for those of you who aren't up-to-date on your country music.
