The Climb…

For some reason Miley Cyrus’ “The Climb” has stuck with me, not because I’m a Miley Cyrus fan or even a Hannah Montana Fan (ok I’ve watch the occasion episode, which I’m sure I’ll get made fun of for) and not because it is played on the radio a lot. But because it’s a very powerful and true song. It reminds me that in life we all have dreams and hope that those dreams come true, we all want to make a difference (change the world), and although sometimes we fail, but it’s not about failing but instead the journey we take, what we learn and if we get up and keep climbing toward that dream. If we dream but don’t take action to achieve those dreams then what’s the point, right? In my life I don’t think I’ve ever had a BIG dream, mostly little dreams that were easy to accomplish. I dreamed little dreams because I was fearful that I would fail if I dreamed too big, but we can’t let fear guide us and hold us back.  My goal, my dream in life NOW is to make a difference, change the world, even if that means the world of just one person. I know changing the world is a BIG dream and I might not make as big an impact as I hope but at least I can say I did what I could, I stepped up and lived, cared for people, reached out a hand to someone in need, sacrificed for others and ultimatly lived like Christ. That’s all that matters, living for Him, falling down in the process but getting right back up, dusting yourself off and continuing on. There will always be something that is holding us back, something in our way but fight, take a chance and keep going, push on, be strong. It’ll all be worth it in the end.
