waitin' on a sunny day

"I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Waitin' on a sunny day

Hard times baby, well they come to to us all
Sure as the tickin' of the clock on the wall
Sure as the turnin' of the night into day"
~ Bruce Springsteen

This came on the radio today (E Street Radio). It was a live version, so the crowd was singing the chorus and Bruce had two little girls come and sing the chorus also, just like he did back in November in Cleveland. It brought tears to my eyes. With everything going on: Church drama, keeping Northshore afloat, Cottage struggles, affording college, my toenails being ugly... This "Hard times baby, well they come to us all" line just hit me. How true. My problems are no greater than many people's ~ they are probably less than most.

So I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day.

I'm actually claiming every day as a sunny day. Thanks Bruce.
