It Matters

This song is by one of my favorite bands. Now, I get that it probably isn't everybody's genre of music but the lyrics make me really think every time I hear them. Would it really matter to someone if I wasn't here tomorrow? Truthfully, no matter who is asking the question, the answer is always yes. Whether you know it or not, you mean something to someone. I love the quote "To the world you may just be one person, but to one person you may just be their world." This could not be truer. When I am feeling alone, I like to listen to this song because it gets me thinking that yes, I mean something. It would matter if I wasn't here tomorrow.

I always end up thinking about what I am doing with my life to make a difference when I listen to this song. I mean, think about it. Are we doing enough with our lives that if we weren't here tomorrow, would it matter in the world? I like to think so. I know our lives seem very minuscule in the big picture of the world, but right here, right now, this is everything to us. Our lives, the people in them, the places we visit, it all affects each other and us.

This is why I love this song. If you give it a chance, it can really make you think, make you wonder. How do I affect the world? Would it really matter, to someone or something, if I wasn't here tomorrow to continue on with my life? We may not be the best person now, but there is always room for change. It may feel like we have nowhere else to go, that we are drowning in our own sorrow. That maybe the best way to handle things is to simply not be here tomorrow. We can see all the chances that have passed us by and we think, "What if?" Well, what if you stayed until tomorrow. Each day is new, and different. You never can really know what is going to happen or who you are going to meet. All you have to do is open yourself up just a little bit to the opportunity of a new day.
