Change in my soul...

First off, the inspiration for this post title...
Falling slowly through the palm of my mind
And enter the new man and enter the new ways
And an old man walking he's whistling a world
He's whistling his lifetime whistling the old man ways
And a new man enters playing name that tune
He said is that my world you're whistling
The old man he turns around and says

There's bound to be some change in my pocket
Bound to be some change in my soul
Bound to be some good things coming to me this time around
Singing is this the face of God I see shining right in front of me
Shining like the morning sun or a mild reflection
Oh it's a mild reflection of my own

Falling slower he'll crawl back to his old god
He says where is my beginning
It seems as if I'm always stuck at the end
My redemption came a little bit too late
And I'm looking for tomorrow and I'm wondering if you've seen it around

There's bound to be some change in my pocket
Bound to be some change in my soul
Bound to be some good things coming to me this time around
Singing is this the face of God I see shining right in front of me
Shining like the morning sun or a mild reflection
Oh it's a mild reflection of my own

Fall a little slower and he'll find himself a new God
He says why'd you make me cry good Lord
Cry about yesterday and tomorrow now
My revelation came a little bit too late
And I'm looking for some guidance and I'm wondering if you've seen it around

There's bound to be some change in my pocket
Bound to be some change in my soul
Bound to be some good things coming to me this time around
Singing is this the face of God I see shining right in front of me
Shining like the morning sun or a mild reflection
Oh it's a mild reflection of my own


I was walking to class Thursday morning, caramel mocha in hand, when I was thinking about how I've changed since I've been in school. When I was in high school I thought that I'd come to school and be this party girl that dated the good lookin popular guys.

Apparently though, that didn't happen. I've still changed a lot though while I've been in school. I remember when I first came to school, I'd go to church because I felt obliged to. Then I stopped going because I didn't feel like it anymore. Now I go back to church because I want to be there. I like going to church again.

But I've changed in other ways too. When I first got here, I was quiet and shy. Most of my change though has come from my job as an RA. I've had to deal with a lot of crazy stuff the past 2 years. It's amazing how pretty much being one of the people in charge of a hall changes you. I've become more self confident, more outspoken. I never thought that I could take charge of some of the situations that I have and tell a group of people exactly what their going to do in a hostile situation.

Sure, the romance hasn't hit yet but it will. The right person for me is out there.

It's amazing how 3 years at college will change a person, down to the soul...
