Up to the Mountain

"I went up to the mountain
Because you asked me to
Up over the clouds
To where the sky was blue
I could see all around me
Everywhere
I could see all around me
Everywhere

Sometimes I feel like
I've never been nothing but tired
And I'll be walking
Till the day I expire
Sometimes I lay down
No more can I do
But then I go on again
Because you ask me to

Some days I look down
Afraid I will fall
And though the sun shines
I see nothing at all
Then I hear your sweet voice, oh
Oh, come and then go, come and then go
Telling me softly
You love me so

The peaceful valley
Just over the mountain
The peaceful valley
Few come to know
I may never get there
Ever in this lifetime
But sooner or later
It's there I will go
Sooner or later
It's there I will go"

Life if Life

Sometimes its nice to just do nothing. I find in the periods of doing nothing that I am peaceful and happy with life. I'm relaxed. I have a wonderful husband and a cute but annoying dog. We have a great house that is a work and progress and always will be. We are blessed with great friend and an even greater family. We have so many things to be thankful for. Sometimes, in the stress and hurry of daily life I forget this and get caught up in "white people problems." But life is really great. We are healthy and have each other to get through things with and what more can a person really ask for?
