The Blank Page Before You

"I am unwritten,
Can't read my mind,
I'm undefined,
I'm just beginning,
The pen's in my hand,
Ending unplanned."

- Natasha Bedingfield

Have truer words ever been written about one's life? We have control, make decisions and live with the consequences.

Every new day a beginning to the rest of your story and every previous day is a chapter in your autobiography. You just keep writing. You may be writing the next great novel or a beautiful and emotional collection of short stories. You just don't know which.

If we could wrap things up and make the words dance on a page, we'd have a complete body of work. You would have tight story lines, deep character development and intertwining situations. The critics would love it and your fans would hang on every paragraph. It would be a best seller. One little problem though.

You never know if it is the end you are writing.

"No one else, no one else,
Can speak the words on your lips,
Drench yourself in words unspoken,
Live your life with arms wide open,
Today is where your book begins."

- Natasha Bedingfield

You can add Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield to my inspirational song list.
