We have all reached a time in our life when we have felt completely helpless. A point in time where you reach the darkest depth of a hole and cannot climb out. We all have people we depend on during these times. It is these people who help us move forward on our journey to achieve bliss. No matter what you go through in your life, we are creatures of habit we need support. Just knowing that someone is there to back us up and stand behind whatever it is we choose to do keeps us going.
In my journey through life my family has always been there for me. They are the backbone of my journey and the roots of who I am. Without them every hardship along the way would have felt ten times heavier. I know that they are always there no matter what. I am so lucky to have been blessed with such a good life. The love they have instilled in me will float on. They are good people who have taught me to be the same.
“Who doesn't know what I'm talking about Who's never left home, whos never struck out To find a dream and a life of their own A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone”
This verse of Wide Open Spaces reminds me so much of my family. We use to listen to Dixie chicks on the long drive to Florida. I am in the days of my life where it is about striking out and learning from my mistakes. I got my head in the clouds, but a foundation of stone.
Rescue from Without: While on the return journey, the hero may need to be rescued from death or from a state of helplessness and bliss.
Wide Open Spaces- Dixie Chicks
Who doesn't know what I'm talking about Who's never left home, whos never struck out To find a dream and a life of their own A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone Many precede and many will follow A young girl's dream no longer hollow It takes the shape of a place out west But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed She needs wide open spaces Room to make her big mistakes She needs new faces She knows the highest stakes She traveled this road as a child Wideeyed and grinning, she never tired But now she won't be coming back with the rest If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test She needs wide open spaces Room to make a big mistake She needs new faces She knows the highest stakes She knows the highest stakes As her folks drive away her dad yells, Check the oil! Mom stares out the window and says, I'm leaving my girl. She said It didn't seem like that long ago When she stood there and let her own folks know She needed Wide open spaces Room to make her big mistakes She needs new faces She knows the highest stakes, She knows the highest stakes, She knows the highest stakes

Completely true, we have to depend on one another for our survival, no man is an island.
