I was on my into work this beautiful Sunday morning and all I could think about was, "Why the hell am I having to go into work today? I should be at church with my family." You see, I have a J.O.B. that has me working Friday thru Tuesday, 10:30am-7:00pm. I know! It does suck!

I was almost to work, when Miley Cyrus's song "The Climb" started to play on my radio stations top 20 countdown. Her song has been out for a while and was still number 18. I've listened to this song many times and have actually taken inspiration from it, but never thought that it completely referred to me.

OK, now when I first heard this song coming out on the radio, I thought, "I can't believe they are putting a Miley Cyrus song on this radio station." So, I didn't really listen to it. Well one time, I did! Man, was I wrong when I thought she had nothing to offer a 44 year old man!

I began to REALLY listen to this song and realized more and more that it is about the struggles of 'making it'. It's about trying to complete that one thing you want to do. It's about the journey through your days, months, years; through your adventures, sorrows, accomplishments and failures. I think it's not only about what kind of person your going to be in the end, but also what kind of achievement your going to end up with at the end because of your 'climb'.

No matter what goal you have set for your self, for your life, read these lyrics... listen to the song... maybe it can inspire you to.

Here are the lyrics to the song:
"I can almost see it. That dream I'm 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.

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!"

Thanks Miley!
