The Time of My Life

I make it a point to not take for granted the life I am living. The other day as I pulled up to the intersection with the Air Force Memorial on one side, the Pentagon on another, and Arlington National Cemetery another, I couldn't help but think, "Man my life is fabulous!" To top it off the weather was gorgeous and I had the windows down. As the sun glinted off the Memorial, David Cook's song, "Time of My Life" came on the radio and I found it to be one of those moments where everything happens at the perfect time and the only result is gratitude. The lyrics are below and I hope you agree with me that I am truly blessed to have the opportunities and experiences I have and that this is the time of my life.


I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart

So I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
I’m keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun

I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.
