Mediation

I often sit and wonder as time goes by. I think of how I have lived and how I will die. Will I be remembered by my children as I grow old? Did I help to create some magical words of gold? Does beautification reflect one’s soul? Did I appreciate the soup that was prepared for my bowl? Should I fight the good fight or just let it be? Are my mother and father still proud of me? There are so many questions that now cross my mind. What shall I seek and what will I find? Have I been a good person, have I done all that I can? Will I be forgiven with the rest of man? Upon introspection I can now conclude. I will hold my head high with the morals I’ve accrued. With Jesus as my savior I know that I will survive. I’ll just let him take the wheel so he can drive.

Hi Mark, These are some deep things to reflect on. You wouldn’t be human if you didn’t. However, the last portion of your sums your up very. Best wishes in the in the contest.Ps, I am a huge country music fan and your last two lines caused me to think of the song “ Jesus Take Wheel” by Carrie Underwood. Enjoy the rest of your evening:-) Alexis
