TODAY IS C

 Choices.

There will come a time, you will see, one day,
the character you become by your choices today.

Left will bring rain, who's knows for how long,
does that mean a right is sunny and strong?

Look deep in your choice, leave nothing unturned,
for sunny and strong may mean you get burned!

And how 'bout that rain, in ark are you bound
or is it to find you break in new ground?

Sometimes the dark storms seem a hard choice to make,
you learn life's tough lessons through fire and earthquake.

You make your choices, which with you learn lessons,
some are forgiving, others keep you guessin'.

With each little choice your character builds...
will you live in a gutter or your dreams be fulfilled?

Its how well you stand after any mistake,
the breathtaking moments, not breaths that you take.


YOUR TURN
ENJOY

  3. I am a big believer in choices. You always have a choice. " I have no choice" is a cop out. You may not like the choices you have but you always have a choice.

    And no action is also a choice!

    Great post.

  4. Very true statements you make. I have always raise my kids to remember that there are consequences to every choice you make. Think about that before you do something, not after.

    nice job.
