You only get one shot ...


Vanakkam [***Language of the Month]

Now don't get me wrong, I am in no way promoting Eminem ... but I do think some of his lyrics are relevant to life.  We do get one shot at life, it's about how we live this life ... do we live a life of Serviam or do we just talk the talk?

We don't get the chance to rewind.  How great would that be, make a mistake ... rewind and erase.  Think of all those things that have happened that make you cringe and think ***omg***!  But life is not a movie, it's not like Bewitched [which I watched this weekend on channel 5] ... Whatever happens good or bad we have to learn to deal with it and rise above it.  It's not always about focusing on the mistakes but how we carry on after we make a mistake - do we make the same mistake or do we learn from it?!

So the theme of this blog is there's a lesson in the lyrics ... You can pick any song you like, keep it clean and choose a lyric/ line that speaks to you ... something that you think is a real life lesson and you can share it with us!  Why did you pick it?  What does it mean to you?  Why is it important?

Think big!
Happy blogging!

    " You will never knoe unless you try you will only regret sitting wondering why".

  2. just stand up tall look them in the face and say,im that star up in the sky im that moutain peek up high. this line teaches me that you shouldnt be afraid to say who you are or what you aree and you shouldnt be ashamed of how God made you.

  3. 'This is for my people who just lost somebody...put your hands to the sky - we will never say bye-bye' This lyric teaches me that though someone may pass away, they are never really gone. It also teaches me that we can move on with life and the future as they never really left us, even though they are not physically present anymore.

    i like the song you only get one shot because you do only get one shot and i like the part where it goes like this you only get one shot so make the time you never get this moment again. so do it when you got the time because you only get one shot.

    I like the song 'its the climb' by Miley Cyrus because it tells me that you have to climb to get to your dream and there may be bumps on that hill but if you follow your dream then YOU CAN MAKE IT!

    I chose this song because it encourages me to believe in myself more and more everyday.

    I think that this phrase/paragraph encourages me to be proud of who I am.

    i like this line in the lyrics because when bad things happens to us we have to learn how to deal with it , put our head up high and forget about it even though it might be hard to cope with

    Sometimes when you make a mistake you stand there and and think- How on Earth could I have been so stupid?-. Well it's all a part of life. We're not perfect, we all make mistakes but we LEARN from them and know not to make them again. If we rewind, we'll never learn and will keep on making that mistake again and again.
    To me, without mistakes, life would be pretty boring, we'd never learn and feel proud that we've learnt something, and not matter how bad the mistake you've made is...it's never to late to make things right. :)

    Baby we're wrong but we could be right"

  10. I Like The Song By JLS "You Only Get One Shot" Because In Life Sometimes You Only Get One Shot To Do Certain Things And Experience Certain Things In Life So You Have To Make It Count
