Reflection On the Sum of Life

What we do today reflects on tomorrow But today we should not worry about tomorrow What we think and feel will depend on the happiness we acquire Our pursuit of happiness can be the chase of a lifetime. In pointing blame, as to who is right or who is wrong We merely forget what is actually right or actually wrong The grudge we hold can become the heaviest load Our tongues a most lethal weapon. Pride can block our way towards our goals We want to be masters first ,instead of servants But first, we must be servants to become masters That is how you climb the ladder of success. Worry, let worry take care of itself Fear, can immobilize our very soul Fear keeps us from moving forward The Unknown, man's greatest fear. Someone once said, "Life's equation cannot be summarized in a moment But must be momentarily summarized all it's life." That is the sum of life.

wow, I found an older one of yours I had not seen yet. YEAAAA. ANd it's a real GOOD one. This is the kind that I could imagine Jesus giving as a sermon on the mount or something. It's chock full of wisdom, my friend. And yep, I will finish that story. I might require two more parts for it, but I'll be sure to let you know if you miss it when I finally post it. lUv, Andrea
