Where do you stand?
The first month of 2016 is in the books! February is a month of love, presidents and predictions. Make it too a month of reflection. It's never to early to check in on those resolutions.
I have no predictions, but fingers crossed General Lee emerges on a cloudy day. As Presidents go, the R's have my vote: The Revolutionist (TJ), Roosevelt (Teddy), Reagan and Rubio.
And as for love, I choose The Climber:
The Climber
What's harder? The climb, or standing upon the peak?
There are many schools of thought.
But even the best schools can’t teach reality.
What is the mountain top which you seek?
Real life requires experiences. Each unique in its challenges,
difficulties, issues, risks and ultimately reward.
If the top is what you’re headed toward
Know to reach it begins the topple
What goes up must come down
Even He whom has overcome Hades grip
Was tempted and the only to never slip
Yet He too will descend. Come again.
The final climb will come in time
Where do you stand? On the slope or atop?
If you stand upon your mountain, stop.
Look below. Take note your path
Does the reward invoke the wrath?
Worry not. Just look above.
The Climber forgives. He is the Lord.
Let Him carry you to the Great Reward!
