Hold Me Like Holy Water

So tonight I tried to get all dressed up for Mass. I did the whole skirt and stockings bit (which I normally don't do). And as I was trudging up The Gargantuan Hill behind our apartment in the dark, I ran into a hostile branch on the ground that jabbed into my leg and ripped a hole in my stocking.
So I trudged back down the hill, in the pitch dark, wondering to myself why I had even bothered.
For goodness sakes.

And I had never heard this song until last night when Rusty played it, but I love it.
So I am sharing it with you (and yes, I iTunes'd it). :)

Dream Big by Ryan Shupe & The Rubberband
When you cry be sure to dry your eyes,
Cause better days are sure to come.
And when you smile be sure to smile wide,
And don't let them know that they have won.
And when you walk, walk with pride.
Don't show the hurt inside,
because the pain will soon be gone.

Refrain:
And when you dream, dream big
As big as the ocean blue.
Cause when you dream it might come true,
And when you dream, dream big.

And when you laugh, be sure to laugh out loud
cause it will carry all your cares away.
And when you see, see the beauty
all around and in yourself
and it will help you feel okay.
And when you pray, pray for strength
to help you carry on when the troubles come your way.
