When life was simpler.

I look back at my childhood and even though there was some pain, it was very good. I learned how to be a son,brother, friend mostly without knowing I was. I learned not to betray a friend when I was betrayed. I learned not to lie to my parents when I lied and got away with it and stewed in my own guilt. I learned to be a brother when I saw my brothers in trouble - I helped.

GOSH IT WAS SO MUCH EASIER THEN!

I still have stuff to learn but I can't go back and play "army men" with my brothers and friends to learn this stuff. How do you convince folks that what you say is what they need to hear when they just think your a WACKO. Oh , Please don't think that I haven't searched the bible for an answer. What happens to guys that say what God wants them to say? They get their head lopped off , maimed, stoned or crucified. Lucky for me they just think me a goofball. WHEW!
