Tonight Is The Night The World Begins Again

Words by Te-Erika

Today is the day.

This is the hour.

Now is your time.

You have been wallowing in mess, overcome with grief and feeling powerless about your situation. You may not even believe that you deserve a second chance. You may feel like there’s nothing out there for you. You may be thinking that this pain is all there is to life.

You’re wrong.

Have you cried yourself to sleep at night asking yourself, “What’s wrong with me?”

Do you find yourself taking the blame when others disrespect you?

Have you stopped praying because you feel that prayer is useless against the attacks of those inflicting the pain?

Are you unsure about whether or not you can make it through another day?

You can.

There’s a fighter inside of you armed and ready to be released. There’s a promise of Better Days ahead if you decide that you deserve it.

PULL yourself up out of your slump by sheer determination. PLAN your way of escape. FORGIVE yourself for staying in the situation. MOVE forward with your plans as though the road behind you is falling away.

Allow this song of hope from the Goo Goo Dolls to ease your mind as you continue your day. When night falls, it is your signal to make a choice about the rest of your life.

Through faith and self-love you will walk away, heal and be free.

“Tonight’s the night the world begins again.” Lyrics from Better Days by the Goo Goo Dolls.
