Olivia's concert to benefit research for a cure to Multiple Sclerosis was a huge hit! See the article here!
I recently heard that Olivia Newton-John will perform for an MS Society benefit on Deceber 11th. I wrote this inspired by someone my wife and I know. You would never know she has MS, and I am going to keep things that way. What I can tell you is that when she was given the diagnosis and news of defeat, she rose to victory through faith and passion for life. She simply said, "If I am well must life like I am well. If I am sick I must live like I am well." I have never heard more powerful words of living what you pray for, or a better example of strength. No one ever can know what will happen, but we all must choose the directions we will take. That is what affects where we are going. Please support the MS Society in their work towards a cure.
I was young and beautiful,
Strong and free,
Living life full,
Being all I could be,
When suddenly something,
Came out of the blue,
When it struck my soul,
I did not know what to do.
The doctor told me,
There is not a cure,
What I would have left,
I was not even sure,
Would I lose mobility?
This was more than fear,
And all I could do,
Was hold to those dear.
Whether I'm sick,
Whether I thrive,
I will survive,
Live life alive!
This is no trick,
This is no lie,
Truth will survive,
Live life alive!
I looked in the mirror,
Not sure what to see,
My husband looked on,
At the beauty in me,
He was by my side,
And with me he prayed,
To find out the answers,
And live from this day.
The doctor did tell me,
That I became ill,
But what was not spoken,
Was my force of will,
To live life alive,
No matter what comes,
For life is a blessing,
Which can't be undone!
Whether I'm sick,
Whether I thrive,
I will survive,
Live life alive!
This is no trick,
This is no lie,
Truth will survive,
Live life alive!
There are no answers,
Of why things must occur,
They happen so fast,
That life can be blurred,
When walking or not,
One thing does stand true,
We are each given life,
For what we must do.
I am loved by my daugter,
I am loved by my man,
What must happen happens,
Through love we will stand,
Will we let something stop us,
Or will we see blessings through?
Whether we live our lives loving,
The choice is for you!
Whether I'm sick,
Whether I thrive,
I will survive,
Live life alive!
This is no trick,
This is no lie,
Truth will survive,
Live life alive!
