A DECLARATION

All of us are fighting some kind of battle.  Each and every one of us.  I saw a movie last night, titled - "Trust".  Very powerful content.  The ending song was a song titled "My Declaration" by the singer/songwriter 'Tom Baxter'.  I chose the woman Eliza Bennett singing it because it was the only one I could find with the lyrics.  Each word is a challenge, a promise, a hope, a faith hard driven.  I want every line to continue to be my quest and truth.  Please take q moment to listen and hear the words - let me know your thoughts.  I hope you are inspired and challenged as much as I was.

    Hello my friend, was awaken by a thunder/lightening storm, our power is still on and I am wide awake so thought I would check blogger.....saw your post in reader, tried it and here I am. I was so excited.
    You are right everyone has something they are dealing with and there is something so satisfying when one faces their fears and deals with the results. I do like a challenge most times, other times ummmm not so much.
    Have a wonderful Sunday....:-)Hugs

    Gail that is one powerful song. I can see where we can grow in our victories. No I cannot keep hiding. I want to be the someone that I was never. And I want to do the "somethings" that I was afraid to do. Yes, I do want to take it on. Have that independence in my life. I will become stronger as I become more freer. Although it remains scary to grab on to those chances that I missed..... they are out there nevertheless. Gail thank you for thinking of me as you posted this. Blessings and much hugs.

    Gail, Though not considered "good manners" by some, I'm writing to tell you thanks for your input re.Vitamin D. The range I heard varied between 1,000 and 2,000. While I stood in the aisle, I must have decided 1,000 was enough. Can't remember how/why I arrived at this conclusion.

    Maybe need a supplement for memory! I'm going to go listen to this song now :)

    We all have challenges to deal with, some worse than others. A good blogging friend's 5 year old granddaughter was killed Sunday in a car accident. I so feel for her.

    I watched the song you posted and then found the Tom Baxter version on Later with Jools Holland.

    Fabulous song. I can well understand why you liked it and were moved to put it here.

    It's very positive. I like it.

    Gail...I wanted to listen to the song and read the lyrics before I came back. I did both. The artist's voice is lovely....so very peaceful-sounding. The words are powerful, too, Gail. Hopefully, all of our journeys through life will give us strength that we need to face our next journey. Love to you, Gail.
