Some say the world will end with fire.

Others say with ice.

From what I've tasted of desire

I hold with those that favor fire.

But if I had to perish twice,

I think I know enough of hate,

To say that for destruction ice,

Is also great and would suffice.

FIVE THINGS

OK--this sucks but I decided I needed to do it just to get it off my mind---I have been tasked to do the five thing deal for ME, FAMILY AND FRIENDS, AND OTHERS. Just for the record OTHERS was by far the easiest---does that tell you something???? I tells me something!!!!!

ME
Read
Blog
Shoot my guns at Christmas ornaments---does this tell you something???
Travel---anywhere
Fight Fire---yeah after all this time I can truly say I do this for ME

FAMILY AND FRIENDS
Keep in touch via Blog/phone/and occasionally e-mail
See my grand kids whenever I can
Help with their finances when I can
Help with other needs when I can
PRAY for them----ALWAYS

OTHERS
Drive Friendly---I no longer get upset at others for cutting in and stuff---in fact I try really hard to let everyone in that I recognize as having trouble EVERYONE.
Give Blood
Give money through charities and through my church donations
Smile at strangers I pass on the street---especially if they are having trouble with their little kids.
Help stranded people on the road if I can---this is one of the things I really liked about riding shotgun with my friend in the Highway Patrol

As hard as this was for me to complete I am not tagging anyone else to do it---I am not sure what this tells about me but it sure does make me wonder what I have been up to in my life.
