These surroundings are what we create The triggers that proclaim our fate And everyone has got that site Of pleasure filled, or not quite right We fill our world with rights and wrong The childhood things that all belong The photos of our lives now passed Mementoes that we hoped would last There is love and there is hate Words within we can’t relate Times of good and times of bad Times of up and feeling sad There’s a door for in and out But not a place to go and shout Windows that reveal the day Prayers that just to God we say There’s things to do that always wait Calls to friends, then it’s too late Finding time to smell the scent Wondering what life is meant More surroundings to create Living then our given fate Doing what feels right that day Until another comes our way |

There’s things to do that always wait Calls to friends, then it’s too late **************************** how true, these words. ~*Sheli*~ By words the mind is winged |

Hi Sheli, thanks for your reply my friend, I will, i will and then it does not happen, I think we all know the feeling, but then the guilt of it goes away. Call the friend you were going to, and even one chore a day done helps. Great to see you here sheli, take care and be well. Sincerely Rick |

'tis a good reminder and a lesson I learned many years ago when I lost my best friend I've often wished I'd said more of what was in my heart. so, your words hit very close to home thank you ~*Sheli*~ By words the mind is winged |

Dear Dixie, great to see you here my friend, every day is a terrific one, well that is what I hope for, real life tells its different story though, the good and the bad.
