Her Morning Elegance



I love this.  

I love the video...I love the lyrics.

Something about it really speaks to me.  

And she fights for her life
As she puts on her coat
And she fights for her life on the train
She looks at the rain
As it pours
And she fights for her life
As she goes in a store
With a thought she has caught
By a thread
She pays for the bread
And she goes...
Nobody knows

It's really difficult for me to put into words...

See, I just feel like I've been there...fighting...for my life.  I know what it's like when the days feel impossibly heavy and it takes every ounce of energy to really feel alive...to find a reason to want to feel alive.  My gremlins can be pretty hard on me sometimes.  For a long time, I didn't know how to protect myself from them. 

Then, I started to fight.

I've fought through some impossibly dark days...and what do you know?  I found life on the other side.

Now, I'm fighting for my dreams...for hope. 

I think we are all fighting for something...at some point.

I don't know...it just speaks to me.  It's so real.
