Flaming Truth

Looking back upon my life, With all it’s twists and turns I am really quite amazed At all the lessons I have learned Oh, none of them were easy I can tell you that There was lots of pain and heartache And at times I got off track I laid the blame on others For the pain that I went through That’s the way I saw it And I believed it too. But I finally saw the truth I was the only one to blame Any time I got burned I had walked into the flame. Connie Moore 1-7-1996

Nicely penned. The title is so dead on! It's no fun taking the heat, but we must.
