Scaling New Peaks
I remember the day when I had no plan
Face cupped in my hand looking down
Then I heard a voice saying just keeping learning
And don’t get discouraged
From that moment I never looked back
Just took up every job that I could learn
Wow where I have reached today
In my mind reaching out to new horizons
And the scaling is not yet over
Every time Gods puts before me a new challenge
Though I am all alone in the world
Every day is a new thrill of opening up to life’s possibilities
There has been no looking back since the day of my divorce.
What has life taught me?
The world can be a terrible place to live in
But keep the faith and choose the middle path
Means neither the extremes of joy or sorrow , poverty or richness.
That way we can protect ourselves from the pendulum swing and keep our life in balance.
Because there are always two sides to the coin, one positive and the other negative.
We cannot negate either experience, have to take both.
But always trusting in God to change the tide when needed.
