Pressing The Flesh

Tuesday, March 14, 2006

A few days ago, my four-year old son sang this song to me. We listen to Ryan Shupe and the Rubberband all the time, and he always requests this song. Today, on my 38th birthday, the sound of these lyrics coming from the mouth of my son make me so happy to be alive:

Dream Big
When you cry, be sure to dry your eyes,
'Cause better days are sure to come.
And when you smile, be sure to smile wide,
And don't let them know that they have won.
And when you walk, walk with pride,
And don't show the hurt inside,
Because the pain will soon be gone.

And when you dream, dream big,
As big as the ocean, blue.
'Cause when you dream it might come true.
When you dream, dream big.

And when you laugh, be sure to laugh out loud,
'Cause it will carry all your cares away.
And when you see, see the beauty all around and in yourself,
And it will help you feel okay.
And when you pray, pray for strength to help to carry on,
When the troubles come your way.

And when you dream, dream big,
As big as the ocean, blue.
'Cause when you dream it might come true.
But when you dream, dream big.
