Makin’ It Mine with Jason Mraz

Posted on Jul 15, 2008 Leave a Comment

Hands down – one of my all time favorite activities is driving with the windows down, on a sunny day with the tunes so loud that I can’t hear myself sing or my phone ring!

My amazing bro introduced me to his hero and my morning inspiration, Jason Mraz. His new CD – We Sing We Dance We Steal Things is simply fabulous.

Wake up everyone
How can you sleep at a time like this
Unless the dreamer is the real you
Listen to your voice
The one that tells you to taste past the tip of your tongue
Leap and the net will appear

I don’t wanna wake before
The dream is over
I’m gonna make it mine
Yes i… I know it
I’m gonna make it mine
Yes i’ll make it all mine

I keep my life on a heavy rotation
Requesting that it’s lifting you up
Up up and away
And over to a table at the graditude cafe
And I am finally there
And all the angels they’ll be singing
Ah la la la ah la la la I la la la la love you
I don’t wanna break before
The tour is overI’m gonna make it mine
Yes i…i know itI’m gonna make it mine
Yes i’ll make it all mine
And timing’s everything
And this time there’s plenty
I am balancing
Careful and steady
And reveling in energy that everyone’s emitting
I don’t wanna wait no more
No I wanna celebrate the whole world
I’m gonna make it mine
Because I’m following your joy
I’m gonna make it mine
Because I… I am open
I’m gonna make it mine

But don’t believe me…go listen to it for yourself! Just promise me that you won’t hold back when you want to start singing and dancing along… :)

Dare To Be Remarkable.

My special friend Gina recently gave me an absolutely beautiful gift.

(Gina and I after the Knee Knacker, 2008)

It is a hand-made necklace from a North Vancouver jewellery designer named Andrea Waines. I have often looked at her works of wonder and even purchased a few gifts for others myself. To receive one from someone else, I think is truly the greatest gift.

My necklace reads: Dare To Be Remarkable. Kinda hard to sport that and not feel fabulous, eh!

leadership lessons, elevated heartbeat experiences + the odd delicious recipe delivered straight to your inbox!

#‍♂️| Because LOVE is LOVE + these two wanna be RAD DADs! @matt_corker + @chaddillack are on the hunt for a special surrogate to bring their family dreams to life. #literally. They vowed to continuing dreaming impossible dreams on their wedding day and this is no exception.//Straight from Bro — “We’ve even reached an exciting milestone. After a successful egg donation from a family friend this past month, our clinic was able to fertilize the eggs and have now created blastocysts (a hunk of healthy cells that look promising in regards to developing into embryos). This is where we need your help. We are now searching for a surrogate 🤰and know that the superwoman who will help make our dreams come true is likely in our network. You probably know her! So if you know someone who has already had kids, is done having their own kids, and would be willing to help us have ours - please DM or send us an email. ‍♂️ #takesavillage #gaydads #theclarkers ahh, it’s earth day! the two homes we beat up the most + expect the greatest in return from. 🤦‍♀️// i promise to take better care; you too, k! // thanks for caring + ‘gramming @thecorkerco #Nelsonville | Nelson is 82yrs old and the Mayor of Black Tusk Village. He *made* this wood splitter 35yrs ago and cuts approx 600 trees a year for firewood for this lil community. Today I got to run his machine and he told me it is “as easy as riding a bicycle”. So tomorrow we will go for a ride- his first mountain climb🤣! // I just love Nelly! // Also: my fleece is an @mec_label original from 1998‍♀️.
