About the song
At the age of 70, many people might think about slowing down, reflecting on their past, or simply resting. But for Reba McEntire, turning 70 is not an end—it’s a powerful new beginning filled with meaning and strength. After a long night spent crying alone, Reba faced her pain, loss, and inner struggles head-on. That night wasn’t just a moment of vulnerability; it was a turning point where she made a promise to herself to start fresh and embrace a brighter future.
Crying is not a sign of weakness—it is a way to release pressure and bring peace to the soul. That night, Reba let go of the heavy burdens weighing on her spirit. When morning came, she awoke renewed—ready to accept change and welcome goodness into her life. Being 70 no longer means stepping back; it marks a milestone of maturity, deep self-awareness, and the right to live fully for herself.
Reba’s promise to herself serves as a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to begin again, to rediscover passion, and to find purpose in life. Through her story, we see the strength of resilience, dignity, and the ability to reinvent oneself at any stage. It is an inspiring message for anyone feeling lost or uncertain.
Reba has shown us that no matter the challenges faced, age is never a barrier to renewal. Every day can be a fresh start, a journey filled with hope and freedom.
