I firstly knew about this song when I was watching American Idol's audition and one of the contestant sang this song wholeheartedly that made Jennifer Lopez had tears in her eyes.

"Temporary Home"
Carrie Underwood

Little boy, six years old
A little too used to being alone
Another new mom and dad, another school
Another house that'll never be home

When people ask him how he likes this place
He looks up and says with a smile upon his face

This is my temporary home
It's not where I belong
Windows and rooms that I'm passing through
This is just a stop on the way to where I'm going
I'm not afraid because I know
This is my temporary home

Mmm..

A young mom on her own
She needs a little help, got no where to go
She's looking for a job, looking for a way out
Cause a half-way house will never be a home

At night she whispers to her baby girl
Someday we'll find our place here in this world

This is our temporary home
It's not where we belong
Windows and rooms that we're passing through
This is just a stop on the way to where we're going
I'm not afraid because I know
This is our temporary home

Old man, hospital bed
The room is filled with people he loves
And he whispers, "Don't cry for me,
I'll see you all someday"

He looks up and says,
"I can see God's face"

This is my temporary home
It's not where I belong
Windows and rooms that I'm passing through
This was just a stop on the way to where I'm going
I'm not afraid because I know
This was my temporary home

Mmm..

This is our temporary home

Temporary home.

Like it or not, whether we want to admit it or not, we do have limited time here on Earth cause we're not living for eternity in this place we might have called a "home".

A friend of mine said that someone's death, especially the ones that we knew in person, had always been a wake up call to remind us from time to time that life is short, we never know when our time is up and we're no longer be in this Earth.

No matter how hard the situation we have to face right now, things are just temporary that soon will get better, or worse, but they all will come to an end at some points, and that including our own breath.

Have we prepared ourselves well for our life in eternity or have we been focusing too much on our temporary lives?

Nice song, Carrie.. thanks for reminding me that it's just a stop to where I'm going :)

Happy Sundayy..
