No reins

On the open road driving back from Bryce Canyon and listening to this song and I really felt like it spoke where I'm at in my life. Just did a hike that as I was in it I didn't think I couldn't keep going but as I finished it I had this feeling like I limit myself sometimes by feelings of doubt. I'm learning how to let go and do hard things but still enjoy the journey.

Here here to good ol rascal--
She left that loser in a dust cloud
Heart in his hand, chin on the ground
Cried her last tear for that clown
She can see a little clearer now
She said, "Oh, oh, I gotta go and find me"
Oh, oh she found the strength to break free

[CHORUS]
Like a painted wild mustang
Flyin' out across the open range
Finally gets to live her life that way
No fear, no fences, nobody-no reins

No reins

All she's ever felt is held back
She says, "It's kinda nice to hear myself laugh"
She's gonna do a lot more of that
She's makin' plans and makin' tracks
She said, "Oh, oh I gotta go and find me"
Oh, oh she found the strength to break free

[Repeat Chorus]

Oh, oh she's learnin' how to let go
Oh, oh whichever way the wind blows
Oh, oh she's learnin' how to let go

[Repeat Chorus Twice]

Candy corns

"Miss Davis, I want to eat your fingernails." Hahaha gotta love my second graders at west kearns elementary. I think holidays are around in life to bring joy, to remind us of the little child we have within us. :)
