Judgement

It is often said in life
                                               that we spend more time
                                                   in our own company
                                                   than anyone else's.
                                                     It would then be
                                                in our own best interest
                                                          if we keep

                                                      clean thoughts

                                                    and a pure heart

                                                 as we are often judged
                                                by the company we keep.

( Smile)... I like this Terry..You're so very right!.. Self analysis is often needed... It reminds me of the word of God which says "Prepare ye the way of the Lord"...Thanks for reminding me... Love Diana
