I really like this song "I'm Not Who I Was" by Brandon Heath. Musically it is simple but strong. Give it a listen some time if you get the chance.
I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was
Used to be mad at you
A little on the hurt-side too
But I'm not who I was
Found my way around
To forgiving you, sometime ago
But I never got to tell you
So..
I found us in a photograph
Saw me and I had to laugh
You know, I'm not who I was
Ooo, there you were right above me
And I wonder if you ever loved me
Just for who I was
When the pain came back again
Like a bitter friend
It was all that I could do
To keep myself from blaming you
Ooo..
Thinking that it's a funny thing
Figured out I can sing
Now I'm not who I was
I write about love and such
Maybe because I want it so much
I'm not who I was
I was thinkin' maybe I,
Should let you know
That I am not the same
But I never did forget your name
Hello
But the thing that I find most amazing,
The amazing grace
Is the chance to give it up
Maybe that's what love is all about
I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was
I'm not who I was
Used to be mad at you
A little on the hurt-side too
But I'm not who I was
Found my way around
To forgiving you, sometime ago
But I never got to tell you
So..
I found us in a photograph
Saw me and I had to laugh
You know, I'm not who I was
Ooo, there you were right above me
And I wonder if you ever loved me
Just for who I was
When the pain came back again
Like a bitter friend
It was all that I could do
To keep myself from blaming you
Ooo..
Thinking that it's a funny thing
Figured out I can sing
Now I'm not who I was
I write about love and such
Maybe because I want it so much
I'm not who I was
I was thinkin' maybe I,
Should let you know
That I am not the same
But I never did forget your name
Hello
But the thing that I find most amazing,
The amazing grace
Is the chance to give it up
Maybe that's what love is all about
I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was

Whacky,
Glad it helped, I don't mind at all you posting it.
Hmmm...what were your thursday thoughts after all? Forgiveness? Now I'm interested to know what you were really thinking about...
I like the line: "I write about love and such, Maybe because I want it so much."...doesn't it sound like so many of us?
I miss your thoughts...glad you're posted them again
