Keep Your Day Job - But You Ought To Write Too

There once was a life ...

: Name: Pat; Location: Denver, Colorado, United States

I am curious. About everything and everyone! To me, life is only worth living if we interact with one another. Learn from one another. Serve each other; teach each other. Care deeply for one another, and take care of each other. And maybe the most important - life is quite possibly only worth living if we find the "funny" in absolutely everything! Laughter & Love. Can you imagine life without these? Would you want to? Not me!

Sugarland's "Stand Back Up" Describes Me Perfectly:

Go ahead and take your best shot,
Let 'er rip, give it all you've got,
I'm laid out on the floor, but I've been here before,
I may stumble, yeah I might fall,
Only human aren't we all?
I might lose my way, but hear me when I say,
I will stand back up,
You'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid, and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up,
I've been beaten up and bruised,
I've been kicked right off my shoes,
Been down on my knees more times than you'd believe,
When the darkness tries to get me, Theres a light that just won't let me,
It might take my pride, and my tears may fill my eyes,
But I'll stand back up,
I've weathered all these storms, But I just turn them into wind so I can fly,
What don't kill you makes you stronger,
When I take my last breath, That's when I'll just give up,
So, go ahead take your best shot,
Let 'er rip, give it all you've got,
You might win this round but you can't keep me down,
'Cause I'll stand back up,
And you'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up,
You'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up.
