Then Versus You

Them Versus You The name you were given at birth, will be yours till you leave this earth. Some may have the same on their certificate, but not as unique because you are significant. We are given different talents and different super powers, finding them may take years or may take hours. We all try to rush and even compete, but sometimes you find yourself in the backseat. Maybe by choice or they're just faster than you, but it's not them but God, that's says when you're through. You're given one life but many different choices, so follow your dreams and not others voices. Some may laugh and not support, but this is your life and your home court. Take control and never have doubt, as they may go this way and you go that route. As long as you get there, even taking some bruising, it was you, not them that did the choosing. By Audrey Kalman

Of course, thousands of other men were named, "Tom Jones", but one did manage to leave the, "Green green grass of home" for bruising and cruising in Las Vegas . . . . .
