THE MENTORI paused to stand and watch a man who had come to the road's divide. My wonder soared as I watched his stare slowly shift from side to side. He stood as if not noticing that many passed him by. They moved without a second glance down the road most traveled by.Then as I watched he stepped full stride toward the path ... More..

WHYI set out to live, I went out to giveMy dreams for life set; I could see them.But then as I went, and the more time I spentThe reality seemedI can't be them.So in sorrow I pause looking back for the causeWhat has led me to where I now stand?And I wish I did not quite so readily knowBut I do, and I full understand.Day after...

HEAVEN HELP MEWill Heaven help me through this life? Will it be there in my need? How much is mine to do alone? At which point should I plead?Will it listen when my head is down and my thoughts directed high?
