Tough times....

March 17, 2008

Hi Girls

I just got home from TAFE (adult education school/uni) and on my way home I was thinking of how tough its been over the last few wks and months and was starting to get a little teary. But all off a sudden on my ipod came a song that made be feel so hopeful and I wanted to share the words of it with you.

I've been thru countless health issues recently with ttc as well as having 2 miscariages. So like you all I know how hard this journey is. So please read the words of this song. I hope it speaks to all of your hearts the way it spoke to mine

The song is called 'BE STRONG' its by an aussie artist called Delta Goodrem. She wrote this song while she was going thru her own battle, cancer.

This is the song.....Are you swimming up stream in oceans of blue? Do you feel like your sinking? Are you sick of the rain after all you've been through? Well I know what your thinking when you cant't take it. Some time soon I know you'll see.

'Cause when your in your darkest hour and all of the light just fades away. When you're like a single flower who's colours have turned to shades of grey. Well hang on and be strong.

We're taking each step one day at a time. You can't lose your spirit. Let live and let live forget and forgive. It's all how you see it and just remember keep it together. Dont you know your never alone.

'Cause when your in your darkest hour and all of the light just fades away. When your like a single flower whose colours have turned to shades of grey. Well hang on and be strong.

No your not defeated and soon you'll be smiling once again. Then you wont have to feel it. Let it go with the wind. Time passes us by and know that your allowed to cry.

'Cause when your in your darkest hour and all of the light just fades away. When your like a single flower whose colour has turned to shades of grey. Well hang on be strong......

Please let me know what you all think. And remember we are in this journey together.

Sending you all LOADS of *******BABY DUST & STICKY SUPER GLUE*******

Thanks for sharing that, Julie. What beautiful lyrics! And very fitting for how I think we have all felt (or feel) at one time or another. I read somewhere that a study was done that found the stress levels of women dealing with infertility are as high as those of people fighting cancer. Maybe that is why that song touches so close to home. Keep the faith, Julie. ******BABYDUST******

Thankyou.. that was beautiful....

I was at a benefit concert for a man with cancer the other night, (My husband was doing sound for the bands) and there was one girl who sang a song that she wrote for her daughter who was stillborn.. and she reported having i believe four miscarriages in addition to the stillbirth... if I can get my hands on the lyrics I'll post them here too...

Oh wow that would be so good...I really believe music can be really benefical when trying to heal or going through tough times. It'd be so good to get alot of songs, poems etc on here that could help us all get through even the 'darkest' of days....

Find this helps me in some way ....

I have this sitting on my desk in front of me and Iv began to notice that everytime I start to feel down I come and sit at my dest and just sit and stare. Any way this is wat I talking about........

"I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year, 'give me a light, that I may trad safely in to the unknown.' And he replied, ' Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God, It will be to you better then a light, and safer then any known way'. "

My nan gave me that peom for my 18th birthday and a few yrs later she passed away but Iv found that when ever Im having a tough stage I always seem to think of the poem. So wanted to share it with you all.....
