What are you going to do with your life?
When, exactly, are you going to start doing it?
Are you ever going to amount up to anything?
– Really, how can one answer these questions,
when the one being asked lives on a separate slate
of values?
What is going to deem my life an important one? A respected and fufilled one? One not wasted?
Is it really going to be the high degree of eduction,
the money, the car, the house, the lawn, and the clothes?
In my opinion, it will be the outlook;
it will be the trying times and being able to get over them with a smile.
It will be having the ability to stay positive when you haven’t money,
when all you’ve got is that family that mightn’t even be blood-one that’s ever changing-
Fufillment is not the number of zeros on my salary,
But the number of people I touch gently with my soul to theirs.
It will be those who become moved by the words I write –
by the novels I put forward, spring to action on the page in fantasy.
The most important thing, is to do what makes you happy.
So all I need is a family, the outdoors, and something to write with,
and I am set for LIFE…
whether or not it conquers with the ideas you had inside of your head.
