a beautiful day ...

I stood right here over forty-two years ago, wondering where will like lead me? What will I accomplish, how will I turn out? What will I do, who will I spend my life with? Where will I live? Where will I have gone? Lots of questions, at that time no answers. Some people plan it all out and there plan gets tweaked. Some people just wing it! I was one of those people. I left it to "destiny". I trusted the Lord. I took my lumps and I hurtled the obstacles. I climbed the moun...tains and most of my deep dreams came to fruition. I'm a lucky man! I know that, I have been blessed. Others may not see it that way? That's their choice...What ever life has in store for you, it's your attitude that determines the outcome. This applies to everyone, every time. The time frame may not be so kind but you can actually change the effects on your life but revisiting them later. What I mean is that life evolves, your thought patterns, your perceptions, your recall. I guarantee you that there are moments in your life that actually went down differently that you experienced at the time. Nothing changed the circumstances. Everything did go down, but you may have been oblivious to the real events. Kind of like going from 2 dimensional to three 3D. From street view to satellite view. Anyway- I came back to this spot and the memories, all of them have magnified. The things I worried about back then, were all minor.
Now I'm older, I'm wiser and I'm bigger. Two out of three aren't bad
