life list

i have been watching ellen
she is one funny girl
this season
she created a life list
things she wants to do in life

my mother sent me an article
20 things to do
to get a good job
one of them is
create a to do list
or a life list
so i did
a semester life list
a life list would be too big
too crazy
too many dreams

so im on the hunt
to get things done
because
failure is not an option

55 feet up

55 feet up
is scary
makes you crazy
tests you
pushes you to the limit

hoops
ropes
mind over matter
must go on
suck it up
face it

one year ago
i hiked mt greylock
the highest peak in mass
when its over
pride rushing through
like an overflowing river

yesterday
putting on a harness
climbing a tree
facing the fears inside
i did it
i can do it all this year

stand up dont be scared
just do it

reba sings
its overwhelming looking up
knowin its a challenge of me
against this heartache to survive
i may slip and fall
but even if i have to crawl
i will break through
to the healing side

just do it
rock on

u gotta believe
