What does it all mean?

While the world turns through the ages
It's a most peculiar ride
Holding on to one another
Moving at the speed of life
We just go on at the speed of life
Family on the midway in the carnival lights
Moving in a circle through the sounds and the lights
And it all goes by at the speed of life
- Jude Cole



Jude Cole is a singer/songwriter that we have loved for a long time. Something about his songs resonate with us. The words tend to be descriptive yet raw, realistic and truthful. I guess this is kind of the point we find ourselves at right now. We get up in the morning- manage to remind each other that we're glad to be waking up next to each other, and the day takes off. Work, school, errands, sick kids, lunches, appointments, meetings, church, rehearsals, driving, reading, phone calls, emails-STUFF. Constantly. It can all be overwhelming. That's why this particular song just.....fits. "Holding on to one another, moving at the speed of life."


Whatever speed your life might be currently moving, hope you're remembering to hold on to one another.
