Day 50 of 365 days of solace: Eye of the Tiger

As I was waking up today I heard a familiar oldie to my thoughts. I haven't heard it in such a long time, that I couldn't remember more than the chorus, and honest, it didn't make much sense to me-- that is, until I read the lyrics.

Having read the lyrics now, I realize that I need to have the will to survive and not give up on dreams, even when it seems that the time for dreaming has passed!  

I need to make sure I never trade my desires of the moments, for the long-lasting, eternal blessings of the future.  

In other words, "Don't sell (myself) short!" 

We all will face moments in our lives where the choices are crucial to determining the outcomes of our tomorrows!  Let's make sure that we don't give up on the victory that is available to each one of us!
I've got to get to bed, as I'm getting another illness, on top of my already viral, asthmatic condition!  Prayer, rest, and plenty of water. :)  So I will leave you for now.

Keep you eye on your goal, and set dreams that will fill your tomorrows with God's promised rainbows.
Love, Christine


Eye of the Tiger

By Survivor
Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance
Now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the
Eye of the tiger
Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds
Still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the
Eye of the tiger
Risin' up straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance
Now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the
Eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
