Destiny

What am I doing
Here on this Earth
What is my purpose
What is my worth

Will I be famous
For something I do
Will I be wealthy
I haven’t a clue

Will taking the plunge
Or seizing the day
Or going for broke
Bring riches my way 

Am I a leader
Will I be led
I’ve made my decision…
I’m staying in bed

I think ‘back’ might be pushing it, Deb. But it was nice to get something on paper - so to speak. For lack of new ideas I keep tweaking my slush pile to no avail. Just about managed to get a Rum and Raisin episode presentable…. Everything else is about ready for the delete button. Glad you enjoyed this tiny glimmer of light ;-)
