LESSONS LEARNT ARE YOU WISHING FOR, LESS WORK AND MORE LEISURE? THAT YOU’D HAVE LESS STRESS AND A LOT MORE PLEASURE? THAT YOU WOULD HAVE NO HASSLES? NO WORRIES? MORE TIME IN THE COUNTRY? LESS TIME IN TOWN? FEWER FRUSTRATIONS, LESS PEOPLE AROUND? AND THAT THE WORLD WOULD SLOW DOWN? WELL WAKE UP, LIFES A HARD HAUL. THERES NO FREE LUNCH ITS ABOUT WORK AND TOIL. NOTHING COMES EASY OF THAT WEVE BEEN TOLD, BUT IF IT DOES ITS MOST LIKELY,ITS FOOLS GOLD. WE SHOULD SET A GOOD EXAMPLE, TEACH OUR KIDS WELL, SHOW A GOOD WORK ETHIC THE RESULTS WILL SURELY TELL. THE DAY WILL COME WHEN LIFE IS EASIER NOT SUCH A MESS, YOU CAN GO FISHING, PLAY GOLF AND CHESS. MEANWHILE WISH FOR A LOVING PARTNER HAPPY KIDS AND GOOD HEALTH NOT LAZY DAYS, WASTED OPPORTUNITIES AND INSTANT WEALTH. FOR SURELY ANY FOOL CAN SEE THAT TO WISH FOR ANYTHING ELSE WOULD SOW THE SEEDS OF A MISERABLE DESTINY. THE CARDS ARE ON THE TABLE THE CHOISE IS YOURS YOU CAN CHOOSE SUCCESS OR BE A LOST CAUSE. BUT REMEMBER, BE VERY CAREFUL, WHAT YOU WISH FOR. HELEN I L |

This poem may need a little work, but I enjoyed the read and valued the message. So often we chase the pot of gold, and loose sight of the more important things in life ~Bill |

The more we evolve spiritually, the less we need material richies to be happy, but the temptations of the glittering world are strong and we are stuck somewhere in the middle ... we are all on the Path though and there are no losers, there are just differences in handling life's challenges. Wishing for the awakening to Love ... Thank you for sharing your point of view. Happy New Year! Love, Margherita  |
