I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
till the landslide brought me down
Oh, mirror in the sky, What is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life
Well, Ive been afraid of changing
cause Ive built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I’m getting older too
Oh, take my love, take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well maybe the landslide will bring it down
I wonder if Stevie Nicks knew how powerful those words were when she first penned them. Did she know that they would reach through time to a woman who was only a baby when the song was first recorded? This song is my heart today. As I get older, I realize that I’ve given the best years of my life away. Spent so many years seeking approval from others, only to have life crash down around me. It is time for me to rediscover the woman I was, the woman I was destined to be. The question is, do I have the what it takes to actually go through with it? That, my friends is for another day. For today, the realization alone is enough.
