Don't Give Up... Don't Even Think Of Giving Up...
Don't Give Up
No - Never Give Up
Either hope or courage
Not When Your Strength Seems
All But Gone...
Not When Your Whole World
Appears To Be Crumbling
All Around You...
Not When The Tears
Won't Stop
Or Won't Come...
No - Never Give Up
Either hope or courage
Not When Your Strength Seems
All But Gone...
Not When Your Whole World
Appears To Be Crumbling
All Around You...
Not When The Tears
Won't Stop
Or Won't Come...
Not When Your Thirst
Knows No Quenching
Nor Your Hunger
Any Assuaging
Not Even When Your Breathing
Becomes Increasingly
More And More Difficult
And Painful
With Every Passing Moment...
Don't Contemplate Giving Up
When They Are All Against You
And None Seems To See The True You
Don't Think Of Giving Up
Not Even When The End Is Said
To Be Near
For You
Don't Buy It -
You Know Better
Don't Give Up
- FIGHT -
Fight Back
Fight With Resolve
Fight With Purpose
Fight With Poise
Fight With Resilience
Fight With Patience
Fight With Sweetness
Fight With Acceptance
Fight With Love
Fight With Silence
Fight With The Truth
Fight With Faith
Fight With Hope
Fight With Grace
Fight With Prayer
Fight With Obedience
Fight With Light
Fight With Luminescence
All Of These Tools
-Not Weapons-
He Will Provide You With
GOD
(Not Groban!)
GOD
Your Heavenly Father
Who Loved You Into Existence
Who Loved You
Since The Dawn Of Time
Knows No Quenching
Nor Your Hunger
Any Assuaging
Not Even When Your Breathing
Becomes Increasingly
More And More Difficult
And Painful
With Every Passing Moment...
Don't Contemplate Giving Up
When They Are All Against You
And None Seems To See The True You
Don't Think Of Giving Up
Not Even When The End Is Said
To Be Near
For You
Don't Buy It -
You Know Better
Don't Give Up
- FIGHT -
Fight Back
Fight With Resolve
Fight With Purpose
Fight With Poise
Fight With Resilience
Fight With Patience
Fight With Sweetness
Fight With Acceptance
Fight With Love
Fight With Silence
Fight With The Truth
Fight With Faith
Fight With Hope
Fight With Grace
Fight With Prayer
Fight With Obedience
Fight With Light
Fight With Luminescence
All Of These Tools
-Not Weapons-
He Will Provide You With
GOD
(Not Groban!)
GOD
Your Heavenly Father
Who Loved You Into Existence
Who Loved You
Since The Dawn Of Time
Who Loves You Truly Unconditionally
Who Loves You For All Of Eternity
And Who Will Raise You Again
To Spend All Of Eternity With His Faithful
So That You May Glorify Him Forevermore
For His Is The Glory
Sempiternal
Everlasting
Omnipotent
And
With No Equal
AMEN

Woman Hit With One-Two Punch And Swinging Back
Posted Thursday, September 14, 2006 ; 06:13 PM
Diana Bird-Pauley is fighting after losing two sons tragically.
Story by Kristen Sell Email | Bio
A Putnam County mother says she has been hit with a one-two punch -- and now she's swinging back. Tragedy struck Diana Pauley's family forcing her to put the pieces back together -- in her life and her granddaughter's.
"I just want my baby back. I just want my boys back..." Pauley says.
At age 19 Greg Bird was diagnosed bi-polar and schizophrenic. So after his brother's unexpected death, mother Pauley wasn't surprised when be began spiraling out of control.
She says, "I knew it was the bipolar and I knew it was the schizophrenia Greg couldn't handle anymore and I begged him, Greg let me get you some help."
One a routine traffic stop Friday near his home in Indiana, Greg exited his truck with a knife. That's when a state trooper shot and killed him.
"He was nothing but a teddy bear," his wife, Diana Rae-Bird says. "He wouldn't hurt anybody..."
Pauley says just days before, she went to the Putnam County Courthouse to get Greg a mental health hearing. She says she was turned away because he wasn't a county resident.
But Putnam County Mental Hygiene Commissioner, Shawn Bayliss, says "whether or not the person is an actual resident of this county is not really the issue, its weather or not they are found in this county."
Only four months ago, Pauley laid her son Lonnie to rest at Tyler Mountain Cemetery in Cross Lanes. Greg will join his brother there, but Pauley says she will not lay him to rest in vein, or without a fight.
"My son will not go in that grave without me fighting to help some other family not go through what were going through. I will fight until the day they put me beside my boys."
Greg Bird's funeral is tomorrow at Chapman Funeral Home in Teays Valley. It's not clear where his 8-year-old daughter Jesse will go. She was from a previous marriage, and Greg had sole custody.
