What we give is all we have.

How we love is what will last.

And this hope we know will carry us through this life.

What we give is all we have.

How we love is what will last.

And this hope we know will carry us through this life.

– The Afters, “This Life”

It’s  1 :  25  PM on day 1846 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray,  read John 12, publish my Disability of the Day feature, publish my Kid of the Week feature,  have breakfast,  learn one new thing –Blue whales are pregnant for 10-12 months – and hang out outside – I feel so small when I’m in nature under the blue sky  and staring at trees as old or older than me I  constantly realize that me and “problems” aren’t that big after all.

This morning I heard “This Life” by The Afters again the beauty and truth of the lyrics struck me. Listen to “This Life” by The Afters below:
