On Living On Earth Poem by Dr John Celes
On Living On Earth
If I can be what others try to be,
I'm afraid, I could land in vanity;
If I remain myself adamantly,
I'm afraid, I could lose my sanity!
But I can't change the ways the world wants me;
I ought to have my own identity;
I must live up to my conscience freely,
Or else lose my happy eternity!
God gave us freedom to think and to do;
We are accountable for every deed;
A life-time shouldn't vanish like morning dew;
Through labour hard, we must become good seed!
Why to welcome the evil that surround?
We ought to spread goodness to all around;
Evil thoughts, misdeeds could turn ghosts that hound;
Than scary mountain, better be good mound!

One must be true to themselves for them to be sincere with and about others...A fine write, Doc...Good seeing you here...After a 2.5 year absence, I have decided to give PH one last go....PF is all but a one and done site who is so desperate, theyhave to stoop to skewing their daily volume stats......Not that PH wasn't more dubious....but it appears that new ownership & a semi-caring management team has been put in place, here....So, i''ll give it a go & hope things will be different at PH...~FjR~
