“I chose this gorgeous image because hope feels like the sun, and I’m turning towards it again. I chose this song, “What I’ve Done,” it’s about the need to forgive ourselves before we do ourselves irreparable harm.”
What I’ve Done Linkin Park
In this farewell There’s no blood, there’s no alibi ‘Cause I’ve drawn regret From the truth of a thousand lies
So let mercy come and wash away
What I’ve done I’ll face myself To cross out what I’ve become Erase myself And let go of what I’ve done
Put to rest What you thought of me While I clean this slate With the hands of uncertainty
So let mercy come and wash away
What I’ve done I’ll face myself To cross out what I’ve become Erase myself And let go of what I’ve done
For what I’ve done I start again And whatever pain may come Today this ends I’m forgiving
What I’ve done I’ll face myself To cross out what I’ve become Erase myself And let go of what I’ve done

“I first heard this song in 2007. I won’t share any more of the story here because this site was never meant to be about me. But if you want to read more about why I chose it, it’s here. What I’ve Done.”
