Follow your heart, achieve your dreams, never let go.

I always like songs that inspire me. Last month, Il Divo releases their "Ancora" album, I was stunned by this wonderful song, "I Believe in You". Reminding me of a song that I have long forgotten, "Climb Every Mountain" from the musical "Sound of Music". Both with a very similar motif, to never let go in achieving your dreams.

The french part of the song is the part I love most. It goes like this,

----------
tout seul, tu t'en iras tout seul
coeur ouvert à l'univers
poursuis ta quête
sans regarder derrière
n'attends pas
que le jour se lève
suis ton étoile
va jusqu'où ton rêve t'emporte
un jour tu le toucheras
si tu crois, si tu crois, si tu crois en toi
suis ta lumière
n'éteins pas la flamme que tu portes
au fond de toi souviens toi
que je crois, que je crois, que je crois en toi


[translation of the french]
all alone, you will go on your way all alone
heart open to the universe
pursue your quest
without looking back
don't wait
for the day to arise
follow your star
go where your dream takes you
one day you will touch it
if you believe, if you believe, if you believe in yourself
follow your light
don't extinguish the flame that you carry
in your heart remember
that i believe, that i believe, that i believe in you

----------

It has never been easy to follow ones dream. One have to climb every mountain, cross every stream, follow every rainbow till one find one's dream.

It takes courage and determination, persistence and discipline...
