Thought I'd pass this on...
chapter 1) I walk down the street. There is a big hole in the sidewalk. I fall in. But, it is not my fault. It takes forever to get out.
chapter 2) I walk down the street. There is a big hole in the sidewalk. I pretend I don't see it. I fall in. But, it is not my fault. It still takes a long time to get out.
chapter 3) I walk down the street. There is a big hole in the sidewalk. I fall in--it's a habit. This time, it is my fault. I quickly get out.
chapter 4) I walk down the street. There is a big hole in the sidewalk. I walk around it.
chapter 5) I walk down another street.

You live where there's sidewalks? Move to the country!!!!! Just kidding. Could be the story of everyone's life.

Love it! I'm so dense sometimes I have to reread things to 'get' it. But 'get' it, I did!

Well, it has taken me about 5 chapters to get to this point also. It's hard to break those bad habits!

I agree with Kris. Your five short chapters reminded me of hearing this motivational speakers say when we feel like we are at the bottom of the barrel there is only one way out, up! Marly
"It's only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth- and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up- that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had." Elisabeth Kurler-Ross |

Sure are a lot of us in this hole! You'd think one of us would roll up our sleeves and fill that hole in!
