Song about staying strong

This may be nothing new for most of you ... but I find myself listening to this repeatedly lately. It's The Climb by Miley Cyrus. It's worth a listen

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 listen to that song every time I hear it on the radio and I have it on my iPod! I have to disagree with the part that says aint about waiting for what's on the other side b/c I think in our case it is but I find that song to be very inspiring! I have cried a number of times when listening to it but I still do every time I hear it! I am glad someone feels the same about that song!

I have heard that song a number of times and one time I heard it in the middle of the night while driving home from meeting out new niece and I was really focusing on the words, trying to stay awake and it hit me how much that song applies to our situations and it was really moving.

I agree for us it is about what's on the other side, but I do think "the climb" is changing us all ultimately for the better, so it is fitting. I've told my DH how much that song helps me feel stronger and he kind of thinks it's silly that I like a Miley Cyrus song, but I think he's glad it helps me keep on going.

I'm glad you posted this so I know I'm not the only one who gets misty-eyed over this song.

Well said Agreed that it is about what's on the other side, but couldn't have said it better about the climb. Miley's got it right - whether she knows it or not
