We are happy to help and very relieved everyone is okay.
MORNING GOLD: Wow, talk about a slew of gold thoughts in action within a 24 hour period of time! That kicked into high gear yesterday and continues. We are feeling it, living it and putting a few into action around the radio station these days. A few hit me on the way to work this morning:
Things can change in the blink of an eye.
Every day is a new beginning.
Falling down is part of life; getting back up is part of living.
As you all know, we all had unexpected interruptions to our daily lives yesterday. Greatest thanks to all of you for your support, love, prayers, good vibes and rallying around us.
Extra thanks to everyone on the front lines including -but not limited to- our first responders, Eastern Shore of Virginia Broadband Authority for getting our internet connections restored so we can be broadcasting online and everyone who reached out with offers to help in any way they could.
We appreciate all of you and your unwavering support for WESR as we rebuild and continue the tradition of keeping our community in touch.
For now, you can listen to WESR & Coastal Country via streaming links at ShoreDailyNews.com, through the Eastern Shore Radio mobile app (available for free download in app stores) and on Alexa devices. We are hoping to be back broadcasting over the airwaves anytime from this weekend to early next week. “Stay tuned.”
Of all the thoughts that were running through my mind on the way in to work today, there was one I kept coming back to: get back up. That's the theme I decided to back up the gold thoughts with this morning... TobyMaac's song GetBack Up.
You turned away when I looked you in the eye
And hesitated when I asked if you were alright
Seems like you're fighting for your life
But why, oh, why?
Wide awake in the middle of your nightmare
You saw it comin' but it hit you outta nowhere
And there's always scars
When you fall that far
We lose our way, we get back up again
It's never too late to get back up again
And one day you gonna shine again
You may be knocked down but not out forever
Lose our way, we get back up again
So get up, get up, you gonna shine again
It's never too late to get back up again
You may be knocked down but not out forever
(May be knocked down but not out forever)
You rolled out at the dawning of the day
Heart racin' as you make your little get-away
It feels like you've been runnin' all your life
But why, oh, why?
So you pulled away from the love that would've been there
And start believin' that your situation's unfair
But there's always scars
When you fall that far
We lose our way, we get back up again
It's never too late to get back up again
And one day you gonna shine again
You may be knocked down but not out forever
Lose our way, we get back up again
So get up, get up, you gonna shine again
It's never too late to get back up again
You may be knocked down but not out forever
(May be knocked down but not out forever)
This is love callin', love callin'
Out to the broken
This is love callin'
This is love callin', love callin'
We lose our way, we get back up again (back up again)
It's never too late
You may be knocked down but not out forever
We lose our way, we get back up again
So get up, get up, you gonna shine again
It's never too late to get back up again
You may be knocked down but not out forever
This is love callin', love callin'
(Lose our way, we get back up again)
Out to the broken
This is love callin' (it's never too late)
(You may be knocked down but not out forever)
This is love callin' love callin'
(Lose our way, we get back up again)
