\Bursts into song........

Ive lived a life thats full.
Ive traveled each and evry highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets, Ive had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, Im sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.

Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried.
Ive had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it my way.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way

Certainly nothing like I anticipated it to be. I've always told myself, I never asked to be here. Experiencing some of the most heart-wrenching and/or horrifying moments in life; I've still managed to raise myself right blushing
Never in a million years did I think I would share 2 children & 2 marriages (+ 2 divorces) to my highschool sweetheart. Nor did I ever expect to disrespect my own beliefs and morals of being love-struck to a married friend of mine! Life is definitely an emotional roller-coaster, at least for some of us.

Hmm.. maybe I should have just written this in the discussions area ~sighs~

I don't think anyone has a perfect life or the life they planned. I've always told my son that life isn't about the choices you make, but how you live with those choices. Sometimes the only way to look is up and you have to believe tomorrow will be better. Mine's been pretty good but it's not over yet! :smile: drinker

just want to know if this life is all you expected, like as a little kid we think the world is a certain way and things are gonna be like that when we grow up, well are they as you anticipated or better or worse????:wink:


Yes and more, way more!!

As soon as I dropped the 'Groan Up' attitude, and embraced the Now.... I got way more and continue to...

Well, you caught me at a bad time. I injured my shoulder/arm and life has been so miserable and full of pain these last six weeks. Catch me when I am over this hurdle.

I suppose that I never expected much in the first place, so I'm very appreciative of what I do have. My kids are ok(both grown now) and they're enjoying their lives.I still have my health. I still have passion about the things and activities that most interest me and I've learned that it's counter productive to sweat the small stuff. I can't say that I'm on cloud nine but I'm doing ok. So yes...it turned out better than I thought it would.bigsmile
