The Narrow Line

We walk a lonely road
Or so I have been told
That life's a lonely journey for us all
But here I'd like to say, somewhere along the way
We choose how we stand and how we fall

For to walk upon this earth, there's a price I have to pay
For all you do and say, and all you hope and pray
And all that you oppose and obey

And all that you believe, and all you laugh and grieve
and what you have become today

And to think the way I do, there's a price I have to pay

Walk the narrow line, walk the narrow line
Walk the narrow line back home
I'll walk until I find, my truth and piece of mind
I will walk the narrow line

Peace will come, your peace will come
When all is said and done
It's only a memory away

And when you find peace, and all your angers cease
Then you'll make some sense of it all
Then the promises of truth, that shone so bright in youth
Give way to greater knowledge as they fall

To be truthful to myself, there's a price I have to pay

MacDonald Research Continues

Received another wonderful email from Pete MacDonald today with an attached email containing two pages of genealogy information regarding our MacDonald family tree from his Aunt Anne. This was a GREAT load of information that I spent a good part of the morning entering into my data. While going through the MacDonald Research Folder I have I also found a descendant GEDCOM file sent to me from a researcher named Tiny in PEI that i never finished entering into my data. Once again I began to enter his information into my research in FTM but finally called it a day in the beginning of the afternoon needing to move on to some other chores. What a great day though for adding so much information all at once to our MacDonald side of the family. I emailed Pete back to thank him and made notes on his email of questions to things written that were unclear to me. At the end of this week I will move off the MacDonald branch and either start new research on the Nickerson or Ferris branch of my family. I will continue entering Tiny's data into FTM tomorrow and start the entry into GRAMPS at the end of the week. It is a great feeling to be so involved in researching family again. I need to make plans to begin a biography of one of the MacDonalds for the Website and finally contact Jean S to make plans for a future MacDonald Clan Reunion in the future.
