My Gaze Wonders

I gaze into my sons' lives and see myself One's a fitness trainer So was I at his stage One's a finance man Ditto for me at 24 One's a soldier Now that's what I secretly yearned to be My youngest son is the 'real me' ~ tho' he's no forever wannabe

Yeah, you're right. Unfortunately my feet stayed glued, while my mind wandered and wondered. Oh, well... Thanks, Arturo!

Very nice, my friend! Love to see what Our children do with their lives. Blessings to all of them. Do any of them write?

Thank you, Kim... And yes, it is interesting to see how our kids 'pan out...' As for writing, they all write really well, but so far nothing creative. The fitness guy has published training manuals for kettle bells and such. We'll see what happens down the road... :) gw

You are an ace detective, Michael, and you are spot on. My kids are truly my pride and joy. Lucky me, Gershon
