About This Quote

There is hope in any circumstance. Be strong! was written by Billy Joel on his album "River of Dreams". This beautiful song tells the story of a man who has lost his wife, she is taking care of his son, and is very ill. He has lost his way and can't seem to find the joy he once had.

But, he doesn't give up on himself or his love for her. He looks into his son's eyes and tells him that there is hope in every circumstance.
