Mama Said There'd be Days Like This

the shirelles
mama said

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
I went walking the other day,
Everything was going fine,
I met a little boy named Billy Joe
And then I almost lost my mind
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
My eyes are wide open
But all that I can see is,
chapel bells are callin for everyone but-a me
but I don't worry cause
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
And then she said someone will look at me
like I'm looking at you one day,
then I might find
I don't want it any old way,
so I don't worry cause
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
Mama said, mama said
Hey! Don't you worry,
Mama said mama said
Hey! Don't you worry now.
Mama said mama said,
Hey! Hey!

See it on YouTube!

I made this image for a challenge on a digital site I love called Digital Whisper

We had to use the hole and all I could think of was me going down it!

We all know what sends us down the hole.

Yet time and time again down, down, down we go!

Like the writer of this song, my downward spiral often starts with a boy...

... well, ok... a man.

I don't know why I get so hurt much of the time. Perhaps it is because I still see myself as a victim.

Deep inside my mind I firmly believe that we are all one... one being... experiencing multiplicity.

But then why do I still hurt inside by what he says, or what he does?

There comes a time in your life where you have to start walking in what you know to be true.

There comes a time in your life when you have had enough of life's foolish little games!

There comes a time in your life when you have to realize what and who you are.

Stephanie(that's me), you are not a hurt little girl anymore!

You are a confident, mature, lovely person who is the master of her own ship!

Act like it!

No one can move you there but you! No one can cross that bridge but you!

Don't worry about what mama said... grow up!

Walk in the Light you have been given!

Assume your place in destiny with dignity!

Smile and know that you are LOVED!

And always, always,  Practice Peace
