You Can Fly


  You Can Fly


Well I guess you just don't know,
I guess you just don't know

until you try...

but when you try,try, try,
you will find out you can fly
you will find out you can fly
when you try.
 

You can fly so high,
way up in that deep blue ocean sky,
you can fly so high when you try

So when the world has got you down,
don't just sit back and frown,
reach way down deep,
find the strength that you keep,

then just try,try, try,
until you learn how to fly
 

a bird is not free,
just sitting in a tree,
you have to use your wings
and if you spread them
you can fly
 

fly so high,
way up in that deep blue ocean sky
fly up to the light
where the sun is shining bright
and even in the longest, darkest night
trust that things will turn out right
if you try, try,try 


you will find the sun comes up golden bright,
and the new dawn will be a sight,
then you can start your flight
to the free wide open sky
if you just try,try, try.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Recovering from a disease, injury, or any other life difficult life changing event or situation is challenging, but with a positive attitude, hard work, perserverace, and focus on the end goal of a positive outcome; and the resultant help and support of others, we can overcome almost anything, if we just keep on trying. When something like your health is taken away, and you fight hard and eventually recover you learn to appreciate more what you have, and also whom  you may find that will care and help you along the way. Believe in yourself and never give up. Continue to be thankful, for achieiving the smllest of victories. Each small win is a big step forward.
