The Climb is a song by Miley Cyrus. I chose this song because it is a very encouraging and it is quite similar to The Journey. Both the climb and the journey show how voices around them/in their mind stop them from moving on and achieving what they want. “…and you felt the old tug at your ankles.” Someone was pulling you back from moving forth. “Every step I’m taking, every move I make feels lost with no direction, my faith is shaking” She is losing hope and confidence. In the poem the author says, “But you didn’t stop. You knew you had to do it.” and in the song the singer says, “But I got to keep trying, got to keep my head held high.” So even through these obstacles both the travelers make it through and continue to move forth.
