I'm walking......


Yesterday after work, I walked up to Bank Street to Lisgar to go to the Bible House to pick up a birthday card and little gift for my neice. It was such a beautiful day that I just kept walking.. while crossing the canal at Landsdown, I called Mike to let him know I was walking home...he said "all the way home" and at that point I hadn't really decided that, I knew that it was a beautiful day and I was feeling great....so I kept walking...got to Billings Bridge and kept walking..Heron road is just up ahead I thought.

I ended up walking all the way home!! It took me just under 2 1/2 hours and I only suffered a small blister.

I felt kind of like Forrest Gump, you know it the movie he just starts running and ends up running for months....

I was a peace with everything and praising God for giving me the strength to do this.

I dreamed a dream..

I heard this song on Tangle.com. Seems Susan Boyle is taking the world by storm!! I wanted to see the lyrics and I really enjoyed the song.

There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft
And their words inviting
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting

There was a time
Then it all went wrongI dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die

I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paidNo song unsung, no wine untasted

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
And they turn your dream to shame

He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came
And still I dream he'll come to me

That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weatherI had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
