Black & White Wednesday


Some controversial graffiti along the Roanoke River.


Life aint always beautiful
Sometimes it's just plain hard
Life can knock you down, it can break your heart

Life aint always beautiful
You think you're on your way
And it's just a dead end road at the end of the day

But the struggles make you stronger
And the changes make you wise
And happiness has its own way of takin it's sweet time


No, life aint always beautiful
Tears will fall sometimes
Life aint always beautiful
But it's a beautiful ride


Gary Allan

    1. And isn't it sad that some people cannot find a way to move beyond hate. Glad you included in the comments the graffitist (sp) is.
