I Will See You In the Pasture

The only true Immortality is the having of children They are the only ones we can live through forever A form of immortality is to live on in others memory Though some are remembered for terrible acts I would always wish to be remembered as a good person We all choose paths through what we have learned in our lives Each person learns many different things in life In this way we are all equal to one another It is a myth that you cannot teach an old dog new trick We will learn something new everyday if we listen You will always learn more by listening than speaking Unless you are asking about something you want to understand more All things that are written may be only one persons perception of life How we perceive what is written may not be the intention of the writer The only way into a writers mind is to reach into his sentences If not for the people alive today what would our reality be now If able we all might want to change one thing or more in our past True love is not really a myth again it is how you choose to perceive People will learn more about you by your actions than your speaking Speaking sometimes can only cement all your actions to words By our learning to listen we will in this way be able to teach I am not a good writer its just that I am jotting down my words To be happy and healthy is all I am worried about If I do not see you in the future I’ll see you in the pasture Be healthy be wise and have fun in your life Remember you cannot take wealth with you when done
