"The important thing is this: To be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become."
- Charles Dubois

You Know Better Than I - from "Joseph, King of Dreams"
I thought I did what's right
I thought I had the answers
I thought I chose the surest road
But that road brought me here
So I put up a fight
And told you how to help me
Now just when I have given up
The truth is coming clear

You know better than I
You know the way
I've let go the need to know why
For You know better than I

If this has been a test
I cannot see the reason
But maybe knowing I don't know
Is part of getting through
I tried to do what's best
But faith has made it easy
To see the best thing i can do
Is to put my trust in You.

For, You know better than I
You know the way
I've let go the need to know why
For You know better than I

I saw one cloud and thought it was a sky
I saw a bird and thought that I could follow
But it was You who taught that bird to fly
If i let You reach me
Will You teach me.

For, You know better than I
You know the way
I've let go the need to know why
I'll take what answers you supply
You know better than I

Suddenly felt like listening to this song.. And it brought me back to some turbulent times where the lyrics felt so meaningful.. Life's good for now, calm yet satisfying, and no big battles, but listening to this song reminds me again that.. As much as I'm stubborn, as much as I often feel I have to go through things by myself, as much as I think I can handle stuff on my own, as much as I hate letting go of my questions and trusting in His silence..

I'm here, able to look back on my experiences with strength and a smile, only because of Him.
