For Saturday, February 5: Chances

Heard this song at the end of Blindside and really loved the sound of the song. I loved the sound of the music and the lead singer's voice. I have never heard of Five for Fighting but then again one would probably call me pretty sheltered when it comes to music. :) So I love it when I hear a song or an artist that I never have before and they catch my attention and I can dive into their music a little bit more. It's the same as when I discover new-to-me author.

The lyrics to this song are all about chances. Taking them and what you could gain from taking chances and what you might lose from taking chances. I'm not a brave person, I don't like taking chances because of the risk. But the past few years I've been stepping out of my comfort zones and risking taking some chances. Some have worked out like I hoped, others haven't but I have learned and grown from each one.
