When you walk through a storm

hold your head up high,

and don't be afraid of the dark.

At the end of the storm

is a golden sky,

and the sweet silver song of a lark.

Walk on through the wind.

Walk on through the rain,

though your dreams be tossed and blown.

Walk on,

walk on

with hope in your heart,

and you'll never walk alone.

You'll never walk alone.

- from "Carousel"

I have the most amazing people in my life.

People who make me feel loved, and who are constant reminders that I always have somewhere to turn.

They are a pillar of strength -- an incredible support system -- cheerleaders who have no idea how huge of a role they play in any and all of my accomplishments.

They tell me that they're "always right behind me, cheering me on."

But they're not behind me.
I'm not leading anyone.


I walk through this life with all of them beside me, making them a part of the journey every step of the way.

I couldn't do it alone -- and I'm glad for that.


I'm glad I get to call these people mine.
