Poem
Everybody always asks me what im going to do with my life, where I'm headed and if i want a wife. How many kids i want where do i want to live, will i stay around home to be with my family..or will i go out and explore the world..theres so many choices and so many places to go, so when they ask me i simply reply.." I don't know ". They ask well r u afraid of failure, of losing, In all honesty i am but i understand life doesn't always work out the way its planned. things happen that you cant change its like a hot fire, the more you try to stop it and put it out...the hotter it gets, the bigger it gets until you finally lose control, that's when i turn towards the lord and ask him to shed light down upon the world as a whole. Because this world that his son died for has lost control, Its a shame to see what can happen to a beautiful soul, When its corrupted by all the sins in this world. But i realize he died for us for one reason...not to make everyone perfect, but to give us the choice to follow a honest life and to make it up to the palace in the sky. I hear about all the criminals and the things they do...I often wonder why? Did something happen in their childhood? Do they turn to violence as a release of anger and hate? or are they just desperate? I'll probably never be able to answer that just like one of lifes unanswered mysteries. Which brings me back to what I'm going to say to you when you ask me what i want to do on this earth. Well let me tell you a few things that i wish to happen...I want to be married...and to give a child birth. I want to provide for my family, do whatever it takes to make sure they get the best. I'm going to be thankful for every little thing even if its just the chance to rest. I will wake up every morning and give thanks to the lord, for giving me this chance at a wonderful life. Thank him for my lovely wife, my kids and the world i have created for them to live in and for this planet they live on . I tell you what...you asked me if I'm afraid of failure...well after completing all this in my life...id say I've won.
