From the album Don't Get Comfortable

Brandon Heath – I’m Not Who I Was
From the album – Don’t Get Comfortable

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was
I used to be mad at you
A little on the hurt side too
But I'm not who I was

I found my way around
To forgiving you
Some time ago
But I never got to tell you so

I found us in a photograph
I saw me and I had to laugh
You know, I'm not who I was
You were there, you were right above me
And I wonder if you ever loved me
Just for who I was

When the pain came back again
Like a bitter friend
It was all that I could do
To keep myself from blaming you

I reckon it's a funny thing
I figured out I can sing
Now I'm not who I was
I write about love and such
Maybe 'cause I want it so much
I'm not who I was

I was thinking maybe I
I should let you know
I am not the same
But I never did forget your name
Hello

Well the thing I find most amazing
In amazing grace
Is the chance to give it out
Maybe that's what love is all about

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was

well, you really don't need to feel guilty ...

sometimes, people simply feel happy being around someone that they made happy =)

no necessity to re-pay or whatever ... just appreciate and let the person feel appreciated =)

it's the thought that counts ...

that is, unless the so-called 'thought' doesn't concur with the actions =/

tch.... well... who would have thought?... a day or two after i posted the stuff about nice guys finishing last?... i realise i'm quite a fool...

Everyone in the world is worth being nice to. Because God never creates inferior human beings, each person deserves respect and dignity.

... and well ... the the word 'love' in english just doesn't cut it ... 'love' has 3 forms in greek ... and since agape-love is an attitude ... i could sub 'nice' in place of 'love' here and it'll still make perfect sense ....

1 cor 13:1-3

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but am not nice, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but am not nice, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but am not nice, I gain nothing.





btw, ever heard this arguement?

too much learning overtaxes the brain

well ... we cannot overload the human brain. It has fourteen billion cells. If used to the maximum, this human computer inside out heads could contain all the knowledge of humanity from the beginning of the world and still have room left over.

I guess there is a limit to how much we can absorb in a day .. but well, the human brain is amazing ... it stores everything we encounter ... the problem isn't data entry .. it's retrieval .. cos we simply suck at organising our data ... (think of how de-fragging a computer hdd speeds it up ... if only we could de-frag our brains ... =P)

it's really true huh? ...

nice guys come in last ...

enough said.

new toy =P

heh heh ... i just bought a new toy =P

yup, it's a lensbaby, a cute strange-looking lens that is 'finger' focus, rather than manual or auto focus ... heh heh ... the learning curve is pretty steep ... but i think i'll manage =P

something ... interesting ....

Apparently ... written by a guy (not me)

You might agree with it, but when it actually happens 99% of girls don't realize it 'til it is too late
and that guy who did it is so frustrated that he has moved on to someone who will take notice.

From a guys point of view:

We don't care if you talk to other guys.
We don't care if you're friends with other guys.
But when you're sitting next to us, and some random guy walks into the room
and you jump up and tackle him without even introducing us, yeah, it pisses us off.
It doesn't help if you sit there and talk to him for ten minutes without even acknowledging the fact that we're still there.

We don't care if a guy calls you, but at 2 in the morning we do get a little concerned.
Nothing is that important at 2 a.m. that it can't wait till he morning.

Also, when we tell you you're pretty/beautiful/gorgeous/cute/ stunning, we freaking mean it.
Don't tell us we're wrong.We'll stop trying to convince you.

The sexiest thing about a girl is confidence.

Yeah, you can quote me.

Don't be mad when we hold the door open.

Take Advantage of the mood im in.

LET US PAY FOR YOU! DON'T 'FEEL BAD'
We enjoy doing it.
It's expected.
Smile and say 'thank you.'

Kiss us when no one's watching.
If you kiss us when you know somebody's looking, we'll be more impressed.

You don't have to get dressed up for us.
If we're going out with you in the first place, you don't have to feel the


need to wear the shortest skirt you have or put on every kind of makeup you own.
We like you for WHO you are and not WHAT you are.
Honestly, i think a girl looks more beautiful when she's just in her pj's.
Or my t-shirt and boxers, not all dolled up.

Don't take everything we say seriously.
Sarcasm is a beautiful thing.
See the beauty in it.
Don't get angry easily.

Stop using magazines/media as your bible.
Don't talk about how hott Morris Chesnutt, Brad Pitt, or Jesse McCartney is in front of us.
It's boring, and we don't care.
You have girlfriends for that.

Whatever happened to the word 'handsome'/'beautiful'.
I'd be utterly stunned by a girl who greeted me with 'Hey handsome!' instead of 'Hey baby/ stud/ cutie/ sexy' or whatever else you can think of.
On the other hand im not sayin i wouldn't like it either.

Girls: I cannot stress this enough: IF YOU AREN'T BEING TREATED RIGHT BY A GUY, DON'T WAIT FOR HIM TO CHANGE. DITCH HIS SORRY DISGRACE-TO-THE-MALE-POPULATION ASS, AND FIND SOMEONE WHO WILL TREAT YOU WITH UTTER RESPECT
Someone who will honor your morals.
Someone who will make you smile when you're at your lowest.
Someone who will care for you even when you make mistakes.
Someone who will love you, no matter how bad you make them feel.
Someone who will stop what theyre doing just to look you in the eyes....and say 'i love you' ..........AND ACTUALLY MEAN IT!

*****Give the nice guys a chance*****
