Topic: Any Road Up
A few of days ago someone ( I think it was Peatle) on this forum responded to something someone wrote - and used the phrase " any road up". It struck me hard - I wrote it down on a scrap of paper on my desk. I kept looking at it over the past couple days and thinking - there's gotta be a song there somewhere. This morning I woke up at 4:45 and had a couple of the chorus lines in my head. Picked up my guitar and started playing around.... this is what I came up with. I'm sure it will need a few tweaks

The price of anything, is the amount of life you exchange for it. - H.D. Thoreau
Your vision is not limited by what your eye can see, but what your mind can imagine.
Make your life count, and the world will be a better place because you tried.
"Use the talents you possess, for the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except only the the best." - Henry Van Dyke
