The Climb

Ok, so most of you know that I am a sappy mess most of the time. It drives my older sister nuts. She is always telling me, "No, we aren't going to have a theme with this or you don't need to write a poem about this, etc." I could probably write novels or movies and become very rich. The sappier, the better.

Anyway, I'm in the middle of a funk right now and I'm trying to get out of it. I have to feel really bad first and then I usually move back up. I got a call from JT, the recruiter at the U, and he basically told me that it is near impossible to get on at the U right now. It is more like a lottery. They have more people applying for jobs than they do jobs. He said on average they get 150-300 applicants for each job. He just wanted to tell me not to take it personally and to just hang in there but not to expect anything to happen anytime soon. Hence, the funk.

So, you all know Addie loves, adores, Miley Cyrus right? So, we are always listening to her music. It's ok, it doesn't bother me too much. However, I have to admit, I love this song and have ever since I heard it and so does Addie. I'm glad she likes it and I hope she lives by it. So, today and until I get out of my funk, this is my theme song.

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
