Onward and Forward

In the midst of struggles, we go onward and forward.

I thought about this song Everyday Glory by Rush and the second verse and bridge really caught my attention:

In the city where nobody smiles
And nobody dreams
In the city where desperation
Drives the bored to extremes
Just one spark of decency
Against a starless night
One glow of hope and dignity
A child can follow the light

No matter what they say…
No matter what they say…
No matter what they say…
No matter what they say…

Everyday people
Everyday shame
Everyday promise shot down in flames
Everyday sunrise
Another everyday story
Rise from the ashes and blaze
In everyday glory

If the future’s looking dark
We’re the ones who have to shine
If there’s no one in control
We’re the ones who draw the line
Though we live in trying times
We’re the ones who have to try
Though we know that time has wings
We’re the ones who have to fly…

No matter what they say…
No matter what they say…
No matter what they say…
Rise from the ashes
No matter what they say
In Everyday Glory
