Couch on a Bus! (Cee’s oddball photo challenge)

I saw a red line on the map – which meant clogged traffic on I-64

An alternative drive home showed me something I’ve never seen before….

A couch on a bus! – being held down with bungee cords-

It was sitting up there – on a make-shift wooden floor.

I took photos with my arm reaching out of the door –

And after a few photos – I HAD to take two more

Because the students waved –and smiled as they soared –

Sitting in the air – in a couch on a bus!!

And hey – why all the fuss?

I mean – that’s what youth groups do

Because teens are just…. um, –  so cool –

And this reminded me of an old youth group song

With words about teens being strong –

It’s by Good Charlotte and it’s called “Hold On”

Here it is from youtube – so maybe you can listen along….

 

 

“Hold On”

by Good Charlotte – released 12/2003 

This world, this world is cold

But you don’t, you don’t have to go

You’re feeling sad, you’re feeling lonely

And no one seems to care

Your mother’s gone and your father hits you

This pain you cannot bear

 

But we all bleed the same way as you do

And we all have the same things to go through

 

Hold on, if you feel like letting go

Hold on, it gets better than you know

 

Your days, you say they’re way too long

And your nights, you can’t sleep at all

Hold on

And you’re not sure what you’re waiting for

But you don’t want to know more

You’re not sure what you’re looking for

But you don’t want to know more

 

But we all bleed the same way as you do

And we all have the same things to go through

Hold on, if you feel like letting go

Hold on, it gets better than you know

Don’t stop looking, you’re one step closer

Don’t stop searching, it’s not over

Hold on 

What are you looking for?

What are you waiting for?

Do you know what you’re doing to me?

Go ahead

What are you waiting for?

Hold on, if you feel like letting go

Hold on, it gets better than you know

Don’t stop looking, you’re one step closer

Don’t stop searching, it’s not over

 

Hold on, if you feel like letting go

Hold on, it gets better than you know

Hold on
