Phenomenal

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman,
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

- "Phenomenal Woman" by Maya Angelou

Speechless

"And I know that it’s complicated
But I’m a loser in love
So baby raise a glass to mend
All the broken hearts
Of all my wrecked up friends

I’ll never talk again
Oh boy you’ve left me speechless
You’ve left me speechless so speechless

I’ll never love again,
Oh friend you’ve left me speechless
You’ve left me speechless, so speechless"

- Lady Gaga, Speechless

Scars

"Scars remind us of where we've been, they don't have to dictate where we're going."

If You Just Believe

"Believe in what your heart is saying
Hear the melody that's playing
There's no time to waste
There's so much to celebrate
Believe in what you feel inside
And give your dreams the wings to fly
You have everything you need
If you just believe."

- Josh Groban "Believe"
From The Polar Express
