LOCKING HORNS

Some are afraid to try new things,
To take a simple risk,
Limiting what they might accomplish,
Limiting what they might wish.

I'm not afraid to try new things,
To take a little risk,
For I believe that we've only moments,
To do the things we wish.

Some feel they have the time,
To do the things they want.
Some think their dreams not valid-
Others feel their paths unjust.

I believe that we should live our dreams,
To bring them to our lives,
For they are the intended paths,
The juices of our lives.

I believe that we should strive to do,
In order that we might-
Learn how to enjoy ourselves more fully,
And everyone in sight. — Giorge Leedy

Would it be a spot in which, without fear of farmers, or hindrance, or ridicule, he could watch and wait, and set himself to some mighty undertaking like the men of old of whom he had heard? As the halo had been to his eyes when gazing at it a quarter of an hour earlier, so was the spot mentally to him as he pursued his dark way. — Thomas Hardy
