be good to yourself

Be Good To Yourself
Journey

(dont forget to pause the music at the bottom so you can hear this song)
















Runnin' out of self-control
Gettin' close to an overload
Up against a no win situation
Shoulder to shoulder, push and shove
I'm hangin' up my boxin' gloves
I'm ready for a long vacation

Be good to yourself when, nobody else will
Oh be good to yourself
You're walkin' a high wire, caught in a cross fire
Oh be good to yourself

When you can't give no more
They want it all but you gotta say no
I'm turnin' off the noise that makes me crazy
Lookin' back with no regrets
To forgive is to forget
I want a little piece of mind to turn to

Be good to yourself when, nobody else will
Oh be good to yourself
You're walkin' a high wire, caught in a cross fire
Oh be good to yourself

Be good to yourself when, nobody else will

I LOVE this song. Not because I want to be selfish and have it all be about me, but the Bible - God - commands us to love others as we love ourselves.

Galations 5:14 "For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself."

and that's just one of the many places that we are commanded that in God's word. But if we dont love ourselves, or basically, are good to ourselves, how can we truly love others?

just a mulling it over these days.

btw, if you listen to any secular music, this is our "family" band. they are, in our opinion, the best band ever! BUT only if Steve Perry is singing with them (in our humble opinions of course).
even Esther knows who they are when they come on the radio or when we pop in their cd. Abigail pretty much knows all of the words to their greatest hits album along with Clay, Rachel & Myself.
