Cuando El Cielo Se Cae

Esta semana que paso me toco vivir una de las experiencias mas catastroficas de mi vida, solo superada por lo que me toco vivir en la ciudad de Mexico en 1985.

Las inundaciones del estado de Queensland han sido un evento casi unico el la vida de muchas personas, sobre todo personas jovenes que nunca habian vivido y sufrido cosas semejantes. El nivel de destruccion del que he sido testigo es inmenso. Personas muertas y muchas desaparecidas, casas que ahora ya no existen porque se fueron flotando con la corriente, negocios en ruinas, perdidas materiales cuantiosas. Tal parece como que el cielo literalmente se cayo sobre nosotros. Pero siempre sale el sol y siempre hay una esperanza aunque a veces tarde en llegar. Descubri un grupo de rock que tiene una cancion que me gusto muchisimo y tal pareceria que la letra fue escrita para la ocacion, la comparto contigo.



Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes and make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think its more than you can take
But you are stronger, stronger than you know
Don't you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do

It doesn't matter what you've heard
Impossible is not a word
It's just a reason for someone not to try
Everybody's scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It'll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do

Overcome the odds
You don't have a chance
(That's what faith can do)
When the world says you can't
It'll tell you that you can!

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do
That's what faith can do!
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise
