Do What Is Most Important
There Are So Many Choices
it is easy to get lost
It's like being at the beach
You have plenty of places to sit
Then you can go in the water
Anywhere at anytime
What makes you the happiest ?
Is it enjoying the sun ?
Relaxing and resting
Swimming in the water ?
Getting exercise and feeling great
Maybe it is a combination of both
Remember too much of anything is not a good thing
Too much sun can cause health problems
It may be skin cancer
If in the water for too long you can get tired
It can be dangerous
You can get leg cramps or suffer from heat exhaustion
So like our day
We have to decide
You can go on the Internet all day and search
For any information known to man
You can spend all day watching t.v.
Movie after movie
On going news and the latest trends
Talk shows and comedy specials
Go to work and earn some money
Go from one job to the next
Each company will appreciate you
Because they get to run their business
Sleep all day if you choose
Go outside and get some exercise
It could be at the gym working out or a simple walk
I find that each day we have to do what will make us healthier in the future
In more ways than one
Mentally alert, physically fit and financially stable
It may look easy but in reality it is not uncommon to drift off in any one area
Lost for a time
Then when we realize it
We learn to compromise
After a day we feel good
After a week we are still feeling fine
Years later we are still doing well
Look around you and see other people
Who made different choices
They might be struggling financially
Emotionally they may be a wreck
Their health may be suffering
There are so many factors that are always changing our decisions
It is up to you
To work the right combination
That unlocks the lock
That gives you the life you can appreciate and share
With other people who really do care

DREAM ON (author) on August 30, 2018:
Gypsy Rose Lee I always keep a list of ideas I like and want to do. If you just write without doing other things you can get monotonous and tedious. I sure you want to bring the pleasure of life in the words that move you. It is a good idea to get out and meet new people. These friendships give us wonderful new opportunities. Writing will always be there and you have to make sure you spend time doing things that make you tired and explore the world all around you. Today my wife and I walked around three different stores. Mostly window shopping and having so much fun just looking and dreaming. I wanted to stay home and write but going out was more important. I will continue later and hopefully pick up where I left off. This time with more love and passion. Thank you for reading and sharing. Have a beautiful night.

Right now with all my changes I don't really know what I want except for one thing to publish another book of poems. This I will do in the near future.
