Advice

My advice is just go ahead and do it. Don't be afraid that you might screw it up. Life is meant to be lived to the hilt, you know. You don't want to look back and wish you had tried it. No, that's not for you... What? You say you've been diagnosed with what? With agoraphobia? Oh, my. I'm so sorry. Forget everything I just told you. No, you don't want to cross America on a train. Of course not. Sometimes I'm such a bad friend...

I wanted to cheer and then cry. So true every word... but a real friend would have repeated the first part again and again to him or her... Stand up... Live live or miss it... it is a choice... God Bless... You are a wonderful poet. Ann
