All Will Be Well

There are times when life can get you down. You feel overwhelmed with everything going on and just plain beat up. I guess this is one of those times for me right now.

It probably happens to everyone and the best thing to do is find ways to cope. I find that having a focus for my training and finding things to do that I enjoy are important. There are some upcoming indoor track meets that I will take part in so now is the time to start preparing for those through my training and nutrition. I'll also be working in some new Asylum Volume 2 workouts.

Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving I should probably think of what I am thankful for. I am thankful for my health and my family's health most of all.

I'm also thankful that when I broke out my winter coat, there was $25 cash in the pocket from last year. Score.

Instead of just a quote this week, I thought I would put the lyrics to a song that I like to play to remind myself that everything will be alright. I've been playing it a lot this week. It's a song that I first heard from Tonic Sol Fa during their holiday concert. It's probably better known from the Gabe Dixon Band, although I prefer the Tonic Sol Fa version.

All Will Be Well 

The new day dawnsAnd I am practicing my purpose once againIt is fresh and it is fruitful if I winBut if I lose
Ooh, I don't knowI'll be tired but I will turn and I will goOnly guessing till I get there then I'll knowOh, I will know
And all the children walking home past the factoriesCan see the light that's shining in my window as I write this song to youAnd all the cars running fast along the interstateCan feel that love that radiates, illuminating what I know is true 
All will be wellEven after all the promises you've broken to yourselfAll will be wellYou can ask me how but only time will tell 
The winter's coldBut the snow still lightly settles on the treesAnd a mess is still a moment I can seizeUntil I know 
That all will be wellEven though sometimes this is hard to tellAnd the fight is just as frustrating as hellAll will be well 
And all the children walking home past the factoriesCan see the light that's shining in my window as I write this song to youAll the cars running fast along the interstateCan feel that love that radiates, illuminating what I know is true 
All will be wellEven after all the promises you've broken to yourselfAll will be wellYou can ask me how but only time will tell 
You got to keep it up and don't give upAnd chase your dreams and you will findAll in time 
That all will be wellEven after all the promises you've broken to yourselfAll will be wellYou can ask me how but only time will tell
All will be wellEven after all the promises you've broken to yourselfAll will be wellYou can ask me how but only time will tellYou can ask me how but only time will tell
