MOVING ON by Rascal Flats


I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past a regret
I found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I"m at peace with myself

I've been burdened with blame
Trapped in the past for to long
I'm moving on

I've lived in this place and i know all it's faces
Each one is different, but they're always the same
They mean me no harm, but it's time that i face it
They"ll never allow me to change

But I never dreamed home would end up where i dont belong
I'm moving on

I'm moving on
At last I can see
Life has been patiently waiting for me
and i know there's no gaurantees
But I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are years passing by
and I have made up my mind
that those days are gone

I sold what I could, packed what I couldnt
stopped to fill up on my way out of town

I LOVED LIKE I SHOULD
BUT LIVED LIKE I SOULDN'T
I HAD TO LOSE EVERYTHING TO FIND OUT

Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this, road
I'm moving on, I'm moving on, I'm  moving on

I loved the last line of being about forgiveness.
My wife has forgiven me of the most mean things I've done for a long time.  My emotions were just fried a couple weeks ago when I tapered down to 75 on the eternal patch.

On top of that my belief system; by faith; I believe in a God who can forgive me, and help me to turn around from where I am and get away from my failings.  When I'm weak; and I can assure you I'm weak; that is when I see salvation come about from my Lord Jesus.

I have always felt teary eyed when I hear Superman, by five for fighting.  In fact, I put in on my myspace page, which is my autism awarness page for my kids.  My three & two year olds are autistic.  I have meet wonderful people on that site as well, for autism support, just like I've found here with addiction.  You guys are my best kept secret! SHH!  Wanna see my kiddos?  Here is my myspace link.  They are pretty cute!

Wonderful, just wonderful.  I cried when I read it.  I'm on day 12 c/t from 480 mgs of oxy for over two years and I feel like I've just lost those years and I'm so sad.  But I'm inspired because I'm feeling better.  I, too, love the forgiveness part.
