Up Where We Belong: An Inspirational Song

          To give us inspiration for the day, allow me to share with you one of my favourite songs entitled Up Where We Belong. The two famous artists for this song are Joe Cocker and the beautiful Jennifer Warnes. This has been a source of inspiration for me not only because of the mastery of these two artists but the lyrics of the song itself. Personally, they were so moving and to let you feel also how these lyrics could impact our lives, I am sharing some of them here with my own reflection:

" The road is long. There are mountains in our way. But we climb a step every day. "

No matter how challenging, what is of great consequence to us is that we are always willing to step forward regardless whether the road is rough and tough or the other way around. Learning to appreciate our daily events will allow us to grow more in a positive way.


" Love lift us up where we belong. Where the eagles cry on the mountains high." 

If we know how to love and allow ourselves to be loved by others then we are putting and adding colours to our life. There are mountains, yes, they are in place everywhere but when we are able to climb them up then we can also see a much bigger picture of what is around us.


"Some hang on to used to be. Live their lives looking behind. All we have is here and now. All our life, out there to find."

Some may find their past so painful and struggle so much to forget them but in order for them to survive on this earth, they need to learn to embrace everything, both gain and pain, as part of life. Though I know that it is easy said than done but there is no other way to grow except to accept all chapters of our life.
