                Wize words, I enjoyed that immensely.  A lot of times I think we all lose sight of those things which are truly important, this poem puts that in perspective.

                How wonderful it would be, if we could measure up to all that these lines say! but, one can always try......like you said HE gives many a chance.

                    Ash-you're a mine of loads of 'little' but hugely wise and necessary words-
                
                phrases and information-that-if we all took heed of and put into practice on a regular basis-we would have a safer-better world to live in! Thank you.God bless. Chris.

                Kindness, and the act of forgiveness is the key to living life to the fullest! Very well said!
