Titanium

I'm still here! After being sick, then super busy with work, then taking care of Andrew when he got sick this week, there hasn't been a lot of time to blog — and to be honest, I haven't felt much like blogging, either.

I'll be back with an update on the babies and life in general soon, but until then, I wanted to share this beautiful cover of "Titanium" from the latest season of The Voice (which, as you know, I am obsessed with). Madilyn has a gorgeous, sweet tone and is a Utah girl, so I'm mustering up some Utah pride (not as easy as Idaho pride) and rooting for her. :)



I've loved this song since it first came out, but I think the stripped-down, slower version helps you focus on the words. They've been in my head lately as I've thought about trials that come my way, especially the chorus:

I'm bulletproof
Nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet,
You take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down
But I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down
But I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium

If you're going through something hard right now, I hope you remember that you ARE titanium and that you can withstand anything. Don't let anybody bring you down or make you feel bad about yourself. You can stop yourself from falling and let those bullets pass you by.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, and I hope you have a wonderful week!
