Small and Proud

I have little boobs. I’m a small person, in every direction, but you know what. I am okay with that.

But I hate how it seems as if it is near impossible to buy a non-push up bra these days. I know I have little boobs and I’m proud. With me what you see is what you get. Aren’t there others out there proud and wanting to show their real side? Why can’t we accept reality instead of trying to make women some unporportionate fantasy?

If you are a small girl, be proud! Little boobs rock!

You don’t need pads, push-ups, or any extras to be beautiful. You already are, my small boobed sisters!

Be Who You Are

Being who YOU are is more beautiful and powerful than anything in the world.

Don’t care about what others, think, or say about you. You be YOU!

People might be mean, cruel, or rude. But forget about them.

Any Way You Want It

So guys, here we are another post on the “Getting Over a Heartbreak” series:

28) Any Way You Want It by Journey

Another Journey song, I know but I can’t help it I love them. They capture emotions so well and can really get their message across.

So this song was released in the ’80s. It was written by lead singer Steve Perry and guitarist Neal Schon. In 1979, Journey was touring with Thin Lizzy and were greatly influenced by them.

The reason I put this on the list was because after a breakup you need to focus on yourself and what you want. And as you are single you should not only can do what you want but you should do whatever you want.

Any way you want it
That’s the way you need it
Any way you want it
She loves to laugh
She loves to sing
She does everything
She loves to move
She loves to grove
She loves the lovin’ things
Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh, baby, hold tight
Oh, she said,

Any way you want it
That’s the way you need it
Any way you want it
She said, Any way you want it
That’s the way you need it
Any way you want it

I was alone
I never knew
What good love could do
Ooh, then we touched
Then we sang
About the lovin’ things

Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh baby, hold tight
Oh, she said,

Any way you want it
That’s the way you need it
Any way you want it
She said, Any way you want it
That’s the way you need it
Any way you want it

There is also the awesome Rock of Ages version:

After all, once you know what you want go after it:

And never settle for anything else:

You may be:

But the right guy will come around and love you no matter what:

The Lining is Silver

 

And if you have been following me lately, you’d know that one thing this magic protects against is a broken heart.

Yep, if you haven’t guessed it…this is another step in the “Getting Over a Heartbreak” series.

25) The Lining is Silver by Relient K

This song comes off the album The Bird and the Bee Sides, the same CD that Up and Up came from. The title of the song comes from the idiom “that every cloud has a silver lining”. Which means that you can always find good in bad.

Now the song takes it in a new direction. It does cover that in bad you can find good, but also that the silver lining is in you. You are the good in the bad situation, it resides in who you are. You are golden, you are awesome.

I found my new black shoes
While cleaning out the bones left in my closet
They were there with the bad excuse
Bon Voyage

Bye thoughts

And I found a back up plan
I’m grateful that I didn’t have to use it
But it’s made of real good friends
Bon Voyage

Isn’t it nice to know
That the lining is silver
Isn’t it nice to know
That we’re golden

Well I found a list of flaw
That I saw in myself and other people
And I threw it away because
Bon Voyage

Isn’t it nice to know
That the lining is silver
Isn’t it nice to know
That we’re golden
Yeah we’re golden
Oh

When it all falls apart and you can’t see
The forest for the cemeteries
Isn’t it nice to know
Isn’t it nice to know

Isn’t it nice to know
That the lining is silver
Isn’t it nice to know
That we’re golden
Oh

Isn’t it nice to know
That the lining is silver
Isn’t it nice to know
That we’re golden
Yeah we’re golden oh

I found a love in me
I always somehow knew that it existed
It just needed to be set free
Bon Voyage

Isn’t it nice to know

Isn’t it nice to know

Isn’t it nice to know

Find that lining:

Love Will Find a Way

So here we are, another step on the “Getting Over a Heartbreak” series. Next song:

23) Love Will Find a Way by Pablo Cruise

So this song was one I grew up listening to. And no I was not born in the ’60s or ’70s. My parents grew up in the ’60s and ’70s and were really into the music (of course). They had a bunch of records and my dad continuously bought CDs with all the ’70s hits that he grew up with. My love for music started with ’70s music and quickly grew foward to the ’80s and back to the ’50s. For me ’70s music will always hold a special place in my heart. In fact it makes complete sense to me that I scored that decade:

Go here to find out which one you are

Anyways, back to the song. So this was written in the 1970s, as I’m sure you guessed from the beginning of the post. It was a great pop/rock song that is really upbeat and catchy. It’s about how at first you might feel like:

And that you will never find anyone again who you will care about and will care for you. But, you do not need to give up. Love will find a way. Just keep your heart open.

Someone, someone’s done you wrong
You thought that your love was strong
Now you’re feelin’ like such a fool
You’re thinkin’ maybe if you said goodbye
You’ll understand the reason why
The love you had felt so cruel, um-hm

Oh, but it’s all right once you get past the pain
You’ll learn to find your love again
So keep your heart open
‘Cause love will find a way

Sometimes we all feel a need to change
Our love we have to rearrange
And move on to something new, yes you do
Your dreams feel like they’re fallin’ apart
You need to find a brand new start
But you’re almost afraid to be true to yourself

Oh, but it’s all right once you get past the pain
You’ll learn to find your love again
So keep your heart open
‘Cause love will find a way
Love will find a way, love will find a way

So now don’t, don’t be afraid of yourself
Just move on to something else
And let your love shine through again

Yes, ’cause it’s all right once you get past the pain
You’ll learn to find your love again
So keep your heart open
‘Cause love will find a way

Oh, but it’s all right once you get past the pain
You’ll learn to find your love again
So keep your heart open
‘Cause love will find a way

Don’t worry, you still have a chance of finding true love

And remember, never stop allowing yourself to love. Just because someone broke your heart, doesn’t mean that you should close yourself off from other people.:

Because you will find someone:
