When I Get Where I'm Going......
** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

“Always hold your head up,
but be careful to keep your nose
at a friendly level.”

~Max L. Forman

I think when I get to where I'm going...If there are some 'Gates' as the story describes, and there is someone there to greet me...I don't think he or she will be looking for the medals I won in this lifetime, nor the ribbons that were given to me on my writing achievements. My diplomas will not get me in the door to the other side there, but moreso a look at my life and to see just how many scars I've got.
For the road has been long...sometimes narrow and with many winding turns. Some thorns along the way have pierced me, but I do believe I'll be welcomed.
If there were some questions about if I used my time wisely, I'd have to say, "Not always but I tried." And if there was a question of wisdom, I'd have to admit that although honesty was the first in my chapter of Wisdom...I didn't always utilize what I learned in this book. Could I have done better? ...Sure...but could I have done worse...Why, Yes!
I remembered to treat people with honor and respect. I remembered they were my brothers and sisters, no matter how nasty they got with me, and I sure as heck gave enough love, compassion and forgiveness.
Just ramblings today is all....
