I Absolutely love that song....It inspires me for my kids. I Also love when they see it & the video...it just helps me to explain & show them how SPECIAL they are
This song does the same for me. Last year I took my son to Disneyland as he was trying to kill himself at six years old. The courses and psychologist didn't help either. I decided to take him on a trip to Disneyland to give him something to look forward to.
On the plane he stated that he hoped the plane would crash so he didn't have to keep trying to kill himself. On the way home he stated he hoped the plane wouldn't crash as I promised to take him to Disneyland for Halloween every year.
This year we went as a family with dad there too. While we were all watching the Halloween fireworks that song came into my head and there I was standing there holding back tears under the lit sky with our family together. That was the greatest gift.
Recovery has changed our world. You just reminded me that when I am feeling overwhelmed and like I want to punch my A out, all I need to do is listen to that song and remember what this is all for.
Thank you as it has been a rough day and I really needed that.
