(Still sick)
Today I thought it would be a good day to help a family dealing with someone they love, who is hurting, but they do not know how to help them.
It is very difficult to go through it when you know they are suffering but they will not talk to you about it.
Most of the time they are afraid of how you will act or what you will think of them, so they just try to hide their pain.
Sometimes you have to #BreakTheSilence for them!
Open the door by sharing this song with them and let them know, you see what they think they are hiding and will move mountains to help them!
If I Could
Barbra Streisand
If I could
I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
Give you courage in a world of compromise
Yes, I would
If I could
I would teach you all the things I've never learned
And I'd help you cross the bridges that I've burned
Yes, I would
If I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I've watched you grow
So I could let you go
If I could
I would help you make it through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears
But I would
If I could
If I live
In a time and place where you don't want to be
You don't have to walk along this road with me
My yesterday
Won't have to be your way
If I knew
I'd have tried to change the world I brought to you to
And there isn't very much that I can do
But I would
If I could
If I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I've watched you grow
So I could let you go
If, if I could
I would help you make it through those hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears
But I would
If I could
Yes I would
Yes I would
If I could
