On starting day, I wonder what will be
But in my heart I know, yet lie
I know tomorrow will be the same and the next
Fearless are those who have not fallen to commitment
Always wanting change but not the challenge
Wanting respect but not demanding
Watching other paddocks grow greener
While the one I tend dies
Where does the drive come from? I know not
Would less mean more?
One life, one chance, too late, too old and over
Sitting back consumed on what might have been
Another twenty years will only bring more regrets
And already I regret enough

Sometimes less is more. Think about it.

Seymour, thank you for your reply, I often wonder if that would be the case, mostly it all comes back to money and how to survive, easy talking, a lot harder the doing.
Good seeing you here my friend, be well and take care.

Sincerely
Rick

Dear Linda, we all reflect a little too much at times, I know I do, thank you for sharing a moment, always good to see you visit.

Dear Lee, again great to see you, you gave me a smile with your reply, you just do it your way, that is what matters.

To you both my friends, again thank you for your time and the sharing of it, nice to know you are both there to share with.

Sincerely
Rick
