We Bend and We Break...But We Don't Give up...




Time Takes Its Toll on Us - Bebo Norman


We are having a trying week. But we don't give up. There will be joy...one day.

    Julie - I'm sorry you're having a hard time. I wish there was something I could say.

    I must say, you look very joyful in that photo! Your deep love for each other is apparent. - Julie O.

    Baptism - Claude McKay

    Into the furnace let me go alone;
    Stay you without in terror of the heat.
    I will go naked in-for thus "tis sweet"-
    Into the weird depths of the hottest zone.
    I will not quiver in the frailest bone,
    You will not note a flicker of defeat;
    My heart shall tremble not its fate to meet,
    My mouth give utterance to any moan.
    The yawning oven spits forth fiery spears;
    Red aspish tongues shout wordlessly my name.
    Desire destroys, consumes my mortal fears,
    Transforming me into a shape of flame.
    I will come out, back to your world of tears,

    A stronger soul within a finer frame.

    (You can always get on the road and come out to where the waving wheat sure smells sweet... :) )

    Gosh that song makes me tear up, Julie. It's beautiful. I'm commenting twice because I'm feeling some of your pain through the space that separates us and I hope that I can lift just a little of that sad load from you...

    I am sorry to hear this has been such a difficult week.

    I have been a fan of Bebo's for several years. He writes some amazing lyrics.

    As others have already said, there is so much joy in the photo you posted here, it's hard to imagine that you aren't that joyful all the time. I'm glad you're not giving up.

    Love the photo, really beautiful. It seems hard to believe that the wheels of life are in motion for you in ways that you don't know right now. Sorry it's a hard week. Hang in, girl.
