I picked The Climb by Miley Cyrus because of the struggles with my weight and I know I have to be strong and push myself to do it, I know I can and this will be a life battle for the rest of my life whether it's losing the weight or maintaining it...
The Climb (Miley Cyrus)
I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"
Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on
'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody's gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!
Keep on moving, keep climbing
Keep the faith, baby
It's all about, it's all about the climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa
I know I'm showing my age, but I'm not familiar with this song. However, it is perfect to describe what people face when they're struggling. Years ago, I was very ill and my doctors put me on a medication that made me fat and my bones thin. I've got my bones healthy again, but I can't shed that steroid weight. So I know how it goes. I have to stop looking at pictures of myself when I was young and slim, thinking "That's the real me" because the real me is who I am, not what I look like.

While I know who Miley is I haven't heard this song but it is great.
ReplyDeleteHaving beeen there/done that with the weight I can tell you it is a struggle but it's well worth the effort. Keep the faith and stay strong.
Sorry, I'm late in visiting, I've been on jury duty most of the week and still need to return to the courthouse again today.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful choice for a song and fantastic photo collage to go with the lyrics. Well done.
You keep up what you're doing and you get there!! I just know it.
Thanks for playing along, and I hope sometime soon you can stop by for a visit with me and my blog.
PS...I would like to begin following your blogging if you don't mind! :o)
