THE LYRICS, THE MELODY and THE STORY

JERLYN FORTUS-ZARA

THE LYRICS

I’d climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, 'cause I need you to see

 'That you are the reason

             I’d climb every mountain……


This might be the song of every teacher who needs to traverse long distance just to reach the school where s/he is stationed to teach.. But my story is not attuned like this!

    And swim every ocean…..., , Just to be with you” …...
For those teachers who need to ride on boat and bancas just to reach the school where they are teaching, this lyrics might be suited for them. Yet, this line doesn't suit the melody of my story.

Fix what I've broken
Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason”

As I looked back, I could say that lessons have been learned, not just by my students but by me. Life has prepared me to be the person I am now. And for that, I will be forever grateful…

 NOW, I have the right LYRICS. My MELODY is attuned..Then, I must say, that the song of my STORY is yet to be sung! It was indeed a great story for me to share..
