There is hope…
So I’m here in Toronto feeling pretty good about life. I may not have it all (okay, even a fraction of it all), but as I’m listening to this fantastic song by someone who I don’t know until I looked the artist up - the cd was a gift – one of the lines continues to run through my head….and it goes like this…”There’s hope, cause it doesn’t cost a thing to laugh, yeah there’s hope”. Thus, becuase I knew I could never remember all of it I went out and found the lyrics thus allowing me to share it with everyone else because they are really good lyrics….and the song is very catchy also.
Lyrics to There’s Hope :

Back when I had a little,I thought that i needed alot. A little was over rated, but alot was a little to complicated. See zero didn’t satisfiy me , a million didn’t make me happy. That’s when I learned the lesson that its all about your perceptions. Hey, are you a papa or a super star so you act ,so you feel, so you are. It aint about the size of your car, It’s about the size of the faith in your heart
There’s hope. It doesn’t cost a thing to smile, you dont have to pay to laugh, you better thank God for that.There’s hope. It doesn’t cost a thing to smile, you dont have to pay to laugh, you better thank God for that. There’s hope
Off in the back country of Brazil, I met a young brotha that made me feel that, that i could accomplish anything. Ya see just like me he wanted to sing he had, NO windows and NO doors, he lived a simple life and was extremely poor. On top of all that he had no eye sight, but that didnt keep him from seeing the light he said, Whats it like in the USA, and all I did was complain. he said living here is paradise, he taught me paradise is in your mind,you know that ….
There’s hope. It doesn’t cost a thing to smile, you dont have to pay to laugh, you better thank God for that.There’s hope. It doesn’t cost a thing to smile, you dont have to pay to laugh, you better thank God for that. There’s hope
Every time i turn on the t.v ( there’s hope)
Somebody’s acting crazy (there’s hope)
If you let it’ll drive you crazy (there’s hope)
But im taking back my power today (ther’s hope)
Gas prices they just keep on rising(there’s hope)
The government they keep on lying (there’s hope)
But we gotta keep on surving, keep living our truth and do the best we can do because
There’s hope. It doesn’t cost a thing to smile, you dont have to pay to laugh, you better thank God for that.( Yea yea ).There’s hope. It doesn’t cost a thing to smile, you dont have to pay to laugh, you better thank God for that. (Yea yea yea) There’s hope
Stand up for your rights, Keeping shining your life, and show the world your smile
Stand up for your rights, Keeping shining your life, and show the world your smile
There’s hope. It doesn’t cost a thing to smile, you dont have to pay to laugh, you better thank God for that.( Better thank God for that) .There’s hope. It doesn’t cost a thing to smile, you dont have to pay to laugh, you better thank God for that. Yea yeaThere’s hope
Two, one, two, one, two, two, two, one
{Repeat til song fades away..}

These lyrics really touched me in that sometimes I am the worst in remembering to be thankful for all that I have. So although I might not have it all in one sense, in another I really do have it all and for that I’m very appreciative.
