I voted "One Sweet Day" a month ago... What I was thinking? There's no doubt the best single of the 90's was Guns n' Roses "November Rain". Stunning piece of art.
I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't eat trash... I work out hard everyday and have a healthy life. And I'm proud of it.
"One"...it took some time for me to get into (at first I was a bit underwhelmed as I had read on various music lists that it is one of the greatest songs of all time, and didn't think it was anything too special). But after going through a breakup about a year and a half ago, the words really meant a lot to me...I began to see what had happened from both sides (at first, when I was very angry, I pictured myself singing that song to her, then I started to picture it the other way around), and I began to see that I was being bitter, and prayed that I would forgive her.
Too late Tonight To drag the past out into the light We're one, but we're not the same We get to Carry each other Carry each other
I realized that there is no point in holding grudges. Yeah, everybody hurts each other in this world. We need to let it go. We will become bitter and angry if we sit around and wait for justice. And vengeance really doesn't make us feel any better. It leaves us feeling empty.
With the help of God, I am now completely at peace with her (and I have been for over a year now), and we honestly are now good friends. So that song has very powerful, yet uplifting memories for me.
