Journey

Life is a journey with no destination.

Along the way, you meet many people...

Some of which join you on the journey for a while...

Some take the other fork in the road.

Some lead and some are led by others

Some stop to smell the flowers...

Others always have a schedule to keep.

Some leave a trail of tears behind...

And some keep walking with a smile on their face and the sun on their back.

On their journey, some remember every site they've ever seen...

Others choose to forget them.

Some rejoice in every single day..

Others just wish to fade away.

What's the rush; we all end up in the same place anyway.

Some people take this journey alone...

Some have a convoy to call their own.

Some write on their journeys with book felt behind

Others' stories are a little harder to find.

Some journeys end sooner than others...

Some of them friends, companions, even lovers.

Some stopped in their tracks refusing to take another step...

Til someone came along with just enough pep.

Some journeys are hard and threatening and full of danger...

Some are dark and hateful and full of anger.

Some of us get lost and can't find our way out...

Some just choose to never come out.

Some paths cross more than once from time to time...

Some of us can't even finish this rhyme ;)

Some of us journey with horses and carrages fully packed...

Some with nothing but the clothes on our backs.

Some run, some skate, some swim thru the sea...

Others just like to take their time like me :)

Wherever my journey takes me shall not be in vain

Be it happy, sad, love, or pain.

No one ever knows what tomorrow's journey may bring...

So come take a walk on this journey with me.

2011- Gonna Be A Good One

First blog of the new year... I am just getting into 2011 and thankfully it has already started off well. I met an amazing girl and things have been blossoming smoothly. This time around I intend to do things right. Take things slow... really get to know her and let her get to know me... so many times have I built a wall around who I was because I thought I needed to protect myself from getting hurt again... but I see now that all that wall did was keep the people out that wanted to come in.

There are no guarantees in life... sometimes opening those doors doesnt always let the best stuff into your life, but sometimes it does...

I am not a perfect person... and i know that my past makes me who i am today... but it doesnt mean i have to remain as the person that i once was.

This year i have two main goals in my life... to get myself into better shape and become healthier... and to continue to get myself into a better financial situation... and start working towards what i want in life...

I am very hopeful for 2011. I see good things with wonderful people in my future :)
