Just Hold On.....

This song, "Hold On," by Michael Buble effectively brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it (lets be honest, most of the time I end up sobbing). Probably because every time I listen to it, I'm an emotional mess and am listening specifically for the lyrics. 
It's currently the most played song on my playlist.





We are so close to graduating. 
So close to being done with homework and exams. 
So close to starting a new adventure that will hopefully bring more happiness and joy than our little family has experienced yet. 
So close that I can hardly stand it. 

Remember how I posted about patience? Well, I'm trying my best to be patient.
But, I still have those moments when I completely lose my cool and break down.
And when those moments come, I try my best to remember to just hold on. 

Hold onto the good things. 
Hold onto my faith. 
Hold onto the happiness that does exist in my life right now.
Hold onto Lyle (he's really good about letting me cry). 
And Hold on to Hope. 

Hope of graduating in July.
Hope of not having to work anymore. 
Hope of being able to finally grow our family. 
And Hope of good things to come. 

This song is kind of therapeutic for me. The words are beautiful, and if you need a little help holding on, I would encourage you to listen to it. And if nothing else, know that I am right there with you. Trying my best to hold on too.

  3. I love love LOVE this song as well. I first really listened to it towards the end of Thomas's deployment when things were getting hard. It helped me and made me cry. It's a good reminder to hold on because everything will work out. Hold on Melissa, you are doing great and always make me smile with your posts on FB and here :)
