From My Own Experiences (Part One)
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
From my own experiences.
This I know.
As I grew to grow,
More curious about my life.
I fear not,
What has yet to me happened.
Nor will I put myself in a position,
To listen to anyone...
Making attempts to discourage the doing,
My activities with their negativity.
That to do is not on my agenda.
I set my own limits without regrets.
If I learn anything,
From my own mistakes made?
Those lessons to learn them are mine.
Regardless who says, 'I told you so!'
For whatever the reason,
I was blessed to explore and adventure...
Possibilities.
And not to ignore chances to risk,
Obstacles to face.
Placed prepared,
To claim on others blamed.
Like many often do.
Done to excuse the refusing,
Being accountable and responsible...
For their actions taken!
