On My Way

This morning I was supposed to go wedding dress shopping with a dear friend and I'm not able to go. I'd been looking forward to this outing for a month. I'm there  in spirit, Adri! I cannot wait to see what you choose and I can imagine you giggling and laughing with joy as you try on the different dresses. So happy for you!

To pull myself up by my bootstraps, I decided to look up the song that had been paired with the video I received from my students yesterday. Do you know the song, "On My Way," by Phil Collins? I had never heard it before. If you'd like to listen click here. Disregard the Disney video, if you'd like and just listen to the lyrics.

Tell everybody i'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
With blue skies ahead, yes i'm on my way
And theres no where else i'd rather be

St. John, Honeymoon, 2009

Tell everybody i'm on my way
And i'm loving every step i take
With the sun beating down, yes i'm on my way
And i can't keep this smile off my face

Longwood Gardens, PA- 2010

Cause theres nothing like, seeing each other again
No matter what the distance between
And the stories we tell, will make you smile
Or really lifts my heart


So tell'em i'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
And to sleep under the stars and could ask for more
With the moon keeping watch over me

Louisiana, 2009

Not the snow nor the rain, can change my mind
The sun will come out, wait and see
And the feeling of the wind 
In your face can lift your heart

Winter backpacking trip on AT, 2007

Oh... theres no where i'd rather be
Cause i'm on my way now 
Well and true
I'm my way there
I'm on my way now(x3)

River Road, Cook Forest- Date?

Tell everybody i'm on my way
I just can't wait to be there
With blue skies ahead, yes I'm on my way
And nothing but good times to share

Alaska Trip, 2011

So tell everybody I'm on my way
And I just can't wait to be home
With the sun beating down yes I'm on my way
And nothing but good times to show

Cascades, 2011

I'm on my way
Yes, I'm on my way 

We're on our way :)

I'm on my way... I'm not there yet, and it will take a while, but I'm on my way. Just a little more music therapy to pass the time. Now just imagine a video with students holding signs and reading poems while listening to the lyrics and you'll be imagining the video I received. Thank you, Janet!
