"I'll Stand By You" by The Pretenders

Oh why you look so sad / The tears are in your eyes

Come on and come to me now / Don’t be ashamed to cry

Let me see you through / Cause I’ve seen the dark side too

When the night falls on you / You don't know what to do

Nothing you confess / Could make me love you less

I’ll stand by you / I’ll stand by you / Won’t let nobody hurt you / I’ll stand by you

So if you're mad get mad / Don’t hold it all inside

Come on and talk to me now / Hey, what you got to hide

I get angry too / Well I’m a lot like you

When you're standing at the crossroads / And don't know which path to choose

Let me come along / Cause even if you're wrong / I’ll stand by you

I’ll stand by you / Won’t let nobody hurt you / I’ll stand by you

Take me in into you darkest hour / And I’ll never desert you / I’ll stand by you

And when, when the night falls on you, baby / You feeling all alone

You won't be on your own / I’ll stand by you / I’ll stand by you

Won’t let nobody hurt you / I’ll stand by you / Take me in into you darkest hour

And I’ll never desert you / I’ll stand by you / Oh I’ll stand by you

I’ll stand by you

Unearth what is within....
Visiting the JC Raulston Arboretum visit 7/17/10 and then, heard this song...
"We're tryin' we're hopin' we're hurtin' we're lovin' we're cryin' we're callin' 'cause we're not sure how this goes."
"eXercise or any physical activity has physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits." ~ p. 146
You need not wear a magical costume with a cape and mask to be a superhero. The superpower you have is the power of your own heart. Your heart gives you the ability to love and to grow your spirit... Every soul has the ability to increase its own divinity through the power of prayer, hope, love, truth, and faith." ~ Health Revelations from Heaven and Earth p. 154

Still Celebrating....


Elizabeth has repeatedly told me: "Good Morning is an oxymoron, but not me! :) Morning is my favorite time of day. My mind is clearer, my body rested, and my soul is at peace. It is only when I start thinking too much and doing too many things at once that LIFE begins being a struggle instead of a Joy-filled experience. I mean, LOOK at these little faces :) As Susan's Facebook comment indicates - "so innocent"

Sarah Mac has a new CD!! Yeah!!!


Loving you is easy, loving you is wondrous and pure

I shout it from the roof tops

How long must I wait till I see your smile

Might of been the moonlight

Caught up in the sparkle in your eyes

So we gotta know I should go slow

But its not in me to wait

Cause I’m alive I’m on fire

Shine like a star burst into the sky

Oh the fiery of desire

You burn so bright electrify

You line me up you take me higher

I've been down a long road

I've become a stranger to myself

Digging in my heals and hoping time

Might be kinder if I waited out

Nothing came from wondering

I've became so small and insecure

Didn't know the cost of all I lost

Until I finally fresh and new

(Again with you)

I’m on fire

Shine like a star burst into the sky

Oh the fiery of desire

You burn so bright electrify

You line me up you take me higher

(whooooooooo)

Loving you is easy

Loving you is wondrous and pure

I shout it from the roof tops

How long must I wait till I see your smile
