Desire Achieved.

Goldfinch60



We often desire things in life,

Those things we do not have

And this often spoils what we have.

But we must remember

That those things we now have

Were once among those things,

Those things we once hoped for.

So do not spoil life with desire,

Desire for what you want,

Enjoy life with things that we have.

    Good write Gold.
    Any 'anniversaries' coming up for us, since millions of years past?

    • Goldfinch60

      Thanks Orchi.
      None of any relevance unless you remember Bonaparte dying on St Helena on 5th May 1821.

        Now - did us two go to St Helena in 1821?

        I've noticed a lot of the things people have end up on the curb side clean up!
