    When I was a kid - a very depressed kid - my favorite song was the Ed Ames version of Climb Every Mountain. Most people know it however from the Sound of Music

    CLIMB EVERY MOUNTAIN

    Climb every mountain
    Search high and low
    Follow every byway
    Every path you know

    Climb every mountain
    Ford every stream
    Follow every rainbow
    Till you find your dream

    A dream that will need
    All the love you can give
    Every day of your life
    For as long as you live

    Climb every mountain
    Ford every stream
    Follow every rainbow
    Till you find your dream

    Climb every mountain
    Search high and low
    Follow every byway
    Every path you know

    Climb every mountain
    Ford every stream
    Follow every rainbow
    Till you find your dream

    A dream that will need
    All the love you can give
    Every day of your life
    For as long as you live

    Climb every mountain
    Ford every stream
    Follow every rainbow
    Till you find your dream

    Later on my favorite sond became I am Woman by Helen Reddy

    I Am Woman

    I am woman, hear me roar
    In numbers too big to ignore
    And I know too much to go back an' pretend
    'cause I've heard it all before
    And I've been down there on the floor
    No one's ever gonna keep me down again

    CHORUS
    Oh yes I am wise
    But it's wisdom born of pain
    Yes, I've paid the price
    But look how much I gained
    If I have to, I can do anything
    I am strong (strong)
    I am invincible (invincible)
    I am woman

    You can bend but never break me
    'cause it only serves to make me
    More determined to achieve my final goal
    And I come back even stronger
    Not a novice any longer
    'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul

    CHORUS

    I am woman watch me grow
    See me standing toe to toe
    As I spread my lovin' arms across the land
    But I'm still an embryo
    With a long long way to go
    Until I make my brother understand

    Oh yes I am wise
    But it's wisdom born of pain
    Yes, I've paid the price
    But look how much I gained
    If I have to I can face anything
    I am strong (strong)
    I am invincible (invincible)
    I am woman
    Oh, I am woman
    I am invincible
    I am strong

    FADE
    I am woman
    I am invincible
    I am strong
    I am woman

    After that my favorite song became The Greatest Love of All by Whitney Houston

    The Greatest Love Of All

      I believe the children are our future
      Teach them well and let them lead the way
      Show them all the beauty they possess inside
      Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
      Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

      Everybody's searching for a hero
      People need someone to look up to
      I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs
      A lonely place to be and so I learned to depend on me

      I decided long ago
      Never to walk in anyone's shadows
      If I fail, If I succeed
      At least I lived as I believed
      No matter what they take from me
      They can't take away my dignity

      Because the greatest love of all is happening to me
      I've found the greatest love of all inside of me
      The greatest love of all is easy to achieve
      Learning to love yourself, it is the greatest love of all

      I believe the children are our future
      Teach them well and let them lead the way
      Show them all the beauty they possess inside
      Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
      Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

      I decided long ago
      Never to walk in anyone's shadows
      If I fail, If I succeed
      At least I lived as I believed
      No matter what they take from me
      They can't take away my dignity

      Because the greatest love of all is happening to me
      I've found the greatest love of all inside of me
      The greatest love of all is easy to achieve
      Learning to love yourself, it is the greatest love of all

      And if by chance that special place
      That you've been dreaming of
      Leads you to a lonely place
      Find your strength in love

    O.K. everybody...don't laugh (or puke). I like country too. Actually I like everything but Rap. The song that I LOVE and it even puts a lump in my throat is:

    THE ONE - by Gary Allen

    Is there even such a man around?? Maybe an Angel from heaven....

    "Girls just wanna have fun"

    I was really robbed of my childhood, not only by my affiliation with the jw cult, but by being raised by a single mom with major depression/mental illness. Now I try to be childlike as much as possible. I dance as much as possible, laugh, and "play". BTW, this attitude really pisses some people off, they give me that look "what's she so happy about"....

    DSGal I was thinking I will survive but it seems Gloria Gaynor did that. After looking at the words I realized it was I am Woman by Helen Reddy I really wanted.

    But did Helen Reddy also do a song name I will survive? Is it the same song?
