This Is The Stuff

I came across a song on the radio that explains where we all find ourselves at some point in our lives. (See below). Crazy, busy days. Upsetting events. But what do we do with it? How do we handle it? Do we choose to let it be a character builder? Or do we choose to let it control our thoughts or consume us? Whether we have lost our keys, or have to deal with biomom at tonight’s ballgame, it’s up to us how we choose to act or react.

THIS IS THE STUFF

Francesca Battistelli

I lost my keys in the great unknown And call me please ‘Cuz I can’t find my phone

This is the stuff that drives me crazy This is the stuff that’s getting to me lately In the middle of my little mess I forget how big I’m blessed This is the stuff that gets under my skin But I gotta trust You know exactly what You’re doing It might not be what I would choose But this is the stuff You use

45 in a 35 Sirens and fines while I’m running behind Whoa

This is the stuff that drives me crazy This is the stuff that’s getting to me lately In the middle of my little mess I forget how big I’m blessed This is the stuff that gets under my skin But I gotta trust You know exactly what You’re doing It might not be what I would choose But this is the stuff You use

So break me of impatience Conquer my frustrations I’ve got a new appreciation It’s not the end of the world Oh Oh Oh

This is the stuff that drives me crazy This is the stuff Someone save me In the middle of my little mess I forget how big I’m blessed This is the stuff that gets under my skin And I’ve gotta trust You know exactly what You’re doing It might not be what I would choose But this is the stuff You use
