Hope is a double-edged sword. On one hand I want to have hope, and on the the other I wish it to be gone because, with hope, comes disappointment and heartache. This past cycle hope found me again and then left me battered, bruised, and literally bleeding at the end of it. Once again no baby for me, no hope, no real chance.
It was then that I thought of a song from my childhood.
I received my copy of Glory and Praise I got off of Ebay, today and wanted to share the first two verses of the song I sang at my First Communion. I've always loved it, but it has come to mean so much more for me now, especially as I deal with the pain of IF.
It is a religious song (actually taken from some words found written on a wall at Auschwitz) though I think it could have some meaning for many people.
I Believe in the Sun
I believe in the sun, even when it isn't shining.
I believe in love, even when there's no one there.
And I believe in God, I believe in God,
Even when he is silent.
I believe in miracles, I believe in light.
I believe there can always be a way.
I believe that nothing is impossible, I believe that nothing is impossible.
That all things are possible with God.

Thanks for sharing that song Chrys. It really does mean so much more now dealing with IF and losing our baby. I have found so much solace in music in the past month.
first off welcome to blogging. I really hope you get as much out of it as I have. I would love to add you to my list too, you okay with that?
I am so sorry about not doing IVF this summer. I know you were looking forward to it. Hoping you guys can get back on the horse soon. ((((HUGS)))))

Hope is in our blood, we just can't help it. Thanks for sharing.
I love that you bought G&P off of ebay. Love it.
What a powerful song. I think we have all sung it at one point in our lives and it is good to hear when you are too weary from life to sing aloud.
Thank you.
