I love this song – for so many reasons, on so many levels.. . . I have to thank Cortney for this one!
It’s a keeper!
I especially love the lines
So this is what you meant
When you said that you were spent
And now it’s time to build from the bottom of the pit
Right to the top
Don’t hold back
Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check
The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell
Right to the top
Don’t look back
Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain check
It’s time to begin, isn’t it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I’ll admit
I’m just the same as I was
Now don’t you understand
I’m never changing who I am
Maybe because I feel spent. Maybe because since our camera, backup drives, laptop, apple tv, all of our ‘data’ was stolen, our holiday pictures, Kids Marathon design etc, etc, etc.
I have decided that I will not let this ruin the great holiday that we had, I won’t let it taint the great memories and experiences that we had. I have to move on. I will expect to never get the stuff back, I will move on, and begin again.
Thank heavens I have a computer genius as a husband. He photostreamed our pictures, and we have about 80% of our pictures from our 25 day adventure of a lifetime. So ALL is NOT lost. Thank goodness. We will just have to write our memories of the experiences that we had where we have no pictures to jog our memories. . . .
and sing a great song.
