Well I just woke up and read some cool stuff in my devotional. I’m on like week 6 or 7, and it’s talking this week about Community. Community within church, friends, etc. Todays was pretty cool, because it talked about how we put on masks in life, and when people ask “How are you?” we always reply with “I’m fine.” While in reality, we may not really be fine, and we may be having a bad day, or worse.

The devotional reminded me of a Switchfoot song off their latest album “Beatiful Letdown” (lol, yes, I finally picked it up. I didn’t believe switchette before, but I do now, the album is awesome!). Anyways, there’s a song on there called “More than Fine” where the lyrics spoke to me in that way (even though they were meant in another way, lol). Here’s the lyrics.

More Than Fine
(Switchfoot)

When I wake in the morning
I want to blow into pieces.
I want more than just okay, more than just okay.

When I’m up with the sunrise.
I want more than just the blue skies
I want more than just okay, more than just okay.

I’m not givin’ up, givin’ up now.
I’m not givin’ up, not backing down.

More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just okay.

When I’m lit with the sunshine,
I want more than just a good time
I want more than just okay, more than just okay.

More than oceans away from the dawn
More than oceans away from who we are.
More than oceans, more than oceans
More than fine.
