Goals In Life

We would be amazed

At what is remembered

At what we comprehend

We sometimes need a reminder

Of what was

And what could have been

If we could imagine

all the possibilities

We would look at life differently

Unimaginable could become imaginable

Our stance in life looked at in a new way

Our horizons unlimited

 no boundary to block our path

We need only to imagine

And reset our aims and goals in life.

If we do not take the chance

We will never know what could have been.

Phyllis, this is one of your best reflective pieces I have seen. YOu did a really good job with this one. Another one I was happy to find here today. Well, I am gonna hurry and get off now. Taking the kids to see a dollar movie, Gnomeo and Juliet. haha. I ordered a supposedly really good arthritis remedy from an infomercial today and I got a year supply which made it really cheap per bottle, same as you'd pay in a health store. So we shall see!! Luv, Andrea
