Missed out a lot, was in Cal the last 3 days.

I love this poetry. This is how I have tried to live my life; however I found the blueprints of all my dreams and aspirations in the Bible. That came after I have lived my first wall banging 40 years without all the direction I needed. Good poetry as always.

I am printing this one out and putting it on my bulletin board

what a fabulous reminder!

 

I'd like to pass it onto some friends if that is OK with you.
