ha ha - made me laugh so........ don\'t jump...... I know someone who when young thought he would fly off a scoreboard to impress his mother......... it didn\'t work out so well. She broke her leg jumping out of a moving car to save him .... and he broke too. She learned, he didn\'t and went on to parachute jump over 2000 times.

The most important things in life
dusk arising said:
But the sun never dies for us JB. And the sun refreshes tomorrow, even when we are not ready to feel it\'s rays upon us.
Like hope, the sun asks nothing of us but all around we see life springing forth as it\'s springtime rays grow stronger, just as we wish our sometimes sad state of mind will spring forth into happiness anew.

A good write JB. Erm, I didn\'t get the hang of it. I breathed in for four, then held it for seven hundred. Some wag had adjusted the poem, and added \'hundred\'! I blew up! heehee.

Oh, how distractions control our minds. Its a sad situation we know not to do at that moment when importance is being dealt with, yet your phone is going off every minute of the day doe some stupid advice in which you give the opposite answer through your frustration of not finishing with your importance. A loud clap of applause for this one.

Such a huge burden to carry at such a young age. There is no rush to figure everything out. take one big decision at a time, it will eventually fall into place as long as you stay true to yourself. Good luck!

Thanks for you challenging POEM JB ! I was 15, 20 years ago and I too had to make many decisions. I chose SCIENCE because it answered all the questions I had about LIFE & LOVE & LIGHTENING etc. I am now Head of Applied Science in a Vocational College where all the students are 17+ ! They love being in College because they are studying Vocational Subjects ~ Catering ~ Engineering ~ Music ~ Health & Beauty etc which they LOVE ! Every Blessing for the FUTURE ~ Science opens many DOORS into the World of Work etc. Yours BRIAN. Please check my site which I share with my FIANCEE who is on a Work exchange in New Zealand. Yours BRIAN
