Do it anyway

We usually blame others when there is failure, when there is disappointment....when things go wrong, in general. Maybe everyone (including you) expected success, but instead there is failure / a disappointing outcome. Here is an interesting question: What if you knew there was a good chance of failure or a lot of people expected failure? Would you still work on that project or pursue that goal? Would the effort be enough - you TRIED to achieve success?

This beautiful song by Martina McBride reminds us that we need to do things anyway....

Anyway

You can spend your whole life building
Something from nothin'
One storm can come and blow it all away
Build it anyway

You can chase a dream
That seems so out of reach
And you know it might not never come your way
Dream it anyway

God is great
But sometimes life ain't good
And when I pray
It doesn't always turn out like I think it should
But I do it anyway
I do it anyway

...



You can pour your soul out singing
A song you believe in
That tomorrow they'll forget you ever sang
Sing it anyway
Yeah, sing it anyway
I sing
I dream
I love
Anyway

From the song 'Anyway by Martina McBride:

You can chase a dream
That seems so out of reach, 
And you know it might not ever come your way,
Dream it anyway.

God is great, but sometimes life ain't good,
When I pray it doesn't always turn out like I think it should,
But I do it anyway,
I do it anyway.

This world's gone crazy and it's hard to believe
That tomorrow will be better than today,
Believe it anyway,
You can love someone with all your heart,
For all the right reasons,
And in a moment they can choose to walk away,
love 'em anyway.
