I heard this song today and I found it to be very inspirational. I've included the words below, but even better is if you click on the link above and listen to the song. I understand that not all the lyrics fit into our situations, but so many of them do.

I think that many of us here understand the price that we pay with our spine problems and it's important to try and remember that we get bumped and bruised and worse, but we need to know that the reward is rich if we persist through our darkest battles. And that if we open our eyes, the prize is right before us and that whatever we do, just don't miss now.

I hope some of you enjoy this and find it as touching as I did.

Dont' Miss Now
by Downhere
The life you chose -
There's never a list for it
Of cons and pros
You find what you love, and you commit

And you're looking so far down
The road so well
That you could forget your crown
Isn't just somewhere else

You get bumped and bruised and worse
For choosing the road less traveled
You know the reward is rich
If you persist through the darkest battles
Open your eyes,
Your prize is right before you, somehow
Whatever you do, just don't miss now

You're on a bus
Don't notice the miles and months fly by
To the rest of us
You're living the highest kind of life

I know the price you pay
Is costlier than it seems
It's worth another day
The end justifies the means

All that you're working for
Could blind you to the treasures all around you
So don't miss these moments, please
The joy before the crown you seek

Bumped and bruised...
You know the reward is rich...

You get bumped and bruised and worse
For choosing the road less traveled
You know the reward is rich
If you persist through the darkest battles
Open your eyes,
Your prize is right before you, somehow
Whatever you do, just don't miss now
