Simple Man
I was sitting alone in my office one hari after a tough case had just closed and was reflecting on my life so far.
“My mama told me when I was young
berkata sit beside me my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if anda do this it'll help anda some sunny day
Oh, yeah it will
As I’m my mother’s only child one hari she had some important things to discuss with me and asked me to sit with her so we could talk. She berkata if I would listen to her saran it would help in the future. She was right.
Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman and you'll find love
And don't forget that there is a someone up above
I was sixteen years old when my mother decided to have this life changing talk with me. I was always doing everything I could to be first in everything. Academics, sports, girls. I always had to be the best and first. My mother told me to slow down and not to live too fast. She berkata life would throw obstacles my way but just to remain strong and let them pass, to not let them bring me down. She also berkata that while there were several girls who liked me and wanted my affections that the perfect one was out there and one hari I would find her and she would cinta me for everything I was as I would do her in return. Then she berkata when I felt lost atau confused to remember God would always be with me and I could rely on him for anything.
And be a simple kind of man
And be something you'll cinta and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't anda do this for me son if anda can?
Then anda can
She told me to always cinta myself for who I am because I’m a great person and will a wonderful man who makes some very deserving woman very happy one day. She berkata to be a simple man and to not complicate things life would do that for me. So I try in every part of life to honor my mothers’ words and do as she suggested.
Don't get your lust from the rich man's gold
All that anda need now is in your soul
And anda can do this, oh baby if anda try
All that I want from anda my son is to be satisfied
She told me not lust over money and wealth but to follow my jantung and that will get me all of the satisfaction I need.
And be a simple kind of man
And be something you'll cinta and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't anda do this for me son if anda can?
If anda can
If I can I do everything to be a simple man to not be too complicated and make life harder than it is. However sometimes in life it is inevitable. I always strive to honor my mothers’ words though and the man she wanted me to be. A Simple Man.
Oh, don't anda worry, you'll find yourself
Follow your jantung and nothing else
And anda can do this, oh baby if anda try
All that I want from anda my son is to be satisfied
She berkata don’t worry if I follow my jantung and nothing lebih than one hari I will find myself and everything else will fall in place. My mother was a very wise woman because I did just that and everything has turned out alright.
And be a simple kind of man
Be something you'll cinta and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't anda do this for me son if anda can?
So baby be a simple, be a simple man
Oh, won't anda do this for me son if anda can?”
I’m a simple man who loves himself for who he is inside. I’m not a wealthy millionaire atau playboy but I am a successful man with a life that he loves. I watch my beautiful partner and fiancé approach my office and can’t help but smile widely as she enters. Stella Bonasera walks into Mac’s office and sits across from him at his desk.
“Hey, babe what are anda up too?”
“I came to see if my handsome fiancé wanted to go out for lunch and take a break from work to spend some time with his fiancé?”
“Sure it’s a much needed distraction. Where should we go?”
“You get to pick handsome I picked last time. Lead the way.”
Mac and Stella walked out of the lab and headed to a cozy kantin, diner to get something to eat. Thanks to the words from Mac’s mother many years yang lalu this was all made possible and Mac Taylor is at peace with himself and life.
