Looking Forward

Here we go again another year we don't break we just bend filled with ups and downs highs and lows wishing and hoping as deep down inside we know we're still the under dog we're still in the fight we know it won't get any easier not at this height bumps and bruises lay ahead with mountains to climb and sleepless nights in our bed we fight a good fight we hold'em and fold'em we turn our cheeks bite our tongues embracing whats to come in hard times we find our strengths when it is the darkest we find our light we will not fade away we will not surrender to our plight a new year filled moments and memories, triumphs and tragedies here's to all of you who sit in the same boat in this rocky sea hold your love keep your smiles and never sell your souls a new year holds no promises and this you know so Happy New Years to all may it not hurt so much when we fall keep you head up and your emotions in hand 2009 will be great if this crazy life you understand peace to all and all a safe night remember we'll only bend in this fight.

Nice write, Michael. A good hard look at what is to come, but an encouragement to be strong and pliable. Well done. Donna G.
