Why HELLLLLO everyone!! I do hope your week has been prosperous and rewarding. You have achieved some goals, set some new ones and dreamed of ones we can still only wish for, but through hard work are definitely possible. This poem today makes a great point. Are we fit to live? What do you do daily that shows the world you mean business? Are you just fumbling through life hoping something lucky may fall into your lap, or are you out there pounding the ground, shaking things up like king kong and going after your goals. Lets go out today and rock it and show the world you do mean business! Love ya all! Cheers. =0)


How When Where (John Oxenham Poem)


It is not so much WHERE you live,
As HOW, and WHY, and WHEN you live,
That answers in the affirmative,
Or maybe in the negative,
The question: Are you fit to live?

It is not so much WHERE you live,
As HOW you live, and whether good
Flows from you through your neighborhood,
And WHY you live, and whether you
Aim high and noblest ends pursue,
And keep Life brimming full and true.

And WHEN you live, and whether Time
Is at its nadir or its prime,
And whether you descend or climb.
It is not so much WHERE you live,
As whether while you live you live
And to the world your highest give,
And so make answer positive
That you are truly fit to live.
