It Was My Fingers Who Said It

 What can I say?

I knew it would be a long hard fought battle to stay motivated.

Nothing comes easy in life for a person who likes to take the road less traveled.

It is the price we pay to have adventures for our souls.

Some just push the boundaries to their right,

some to their left.

Some never push at all.

True thinkers

and doers blast right up the middle.

Head strong.

If they get knock down because of it,

they get right back up,

dust their clothes off,

and hit the ground running.

You are never defeated until you quit.

Not getting up

and knocking down your obstacles

or whatever is holding you back,

is quitting.

Giving up on life.

Believing something is futile before you even try tells me that you are already defeated.

You swim in the shallow end of the pool.

Afraid that an undertow will take you to the deep end

and you won't be able to return to your complacency.

Failing is not the end of the world,

giving up is.

They say the only sure things in life are death

and taxes.

But they are wrong.

If you are alive,

there must have been a birth.

If you have youth,

someone has tried to educate you because you are able to speak.

If you are an adult,

you are expected to work.

Work for your survival.

After your life's work is done,

you are expected to die.

To make room for the next birth.

So the four sure things in life,

if you are alive,

are;

Birth, School, Work, Death.

Just like that band from the 90's

The Godfathers

said in their song.

Except,

I would like to add one word to that list.

Living.

It takes a lot of

Living

between

Birth & Death

to have a

Life.

This is,

I Had No Idea On What To Write About Today So I Sat Down

And Began Typing

Those Are The Words My Fingers Came Up With

Jim Hauenstein,

And,

 “Italians have a little joke, that the world is so hard a man must have two fathers to look after him, and that's why they have godfathers.”
- Mario Puzo, -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
