Do you see the forks along your path?
Do you understand the each choice's impact?
Do you live to feed your ego's demands?
Or in your life have you learned to transcend?
Reflect on the path you will choose today.

Yup.

I tried to post as gently as I could considering it was you who started the thread. I shouldn't have expended the effort.

still, your desktop path is something like "C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Desktop" that's like half the characters already. you have to rename whatever you are trying to save to something shorter.

The Universe merges our life with time
Each choice a path, a destiny defined
Eventually merging soul with mind

Circumstances blurring potential
Tragedy bringing pain torrential
Purpose and wisdom ingredients essential

Lives shaped outwardly in
Falling short missing the mark
Lives driven inwardly out
Shaping life around the heart

Are we the masters of our destiny?
Shapers of our eternity?
Choosers of our final destination?
Deliberately moving without hesitation?

Shape well your path your journey’s end
To all give love, do not offend
Choose goodness in every choice
In your words, spread God’s voice
Separate your soul from shell
The soul lives on come heaven or hell
The choice is yours, choose it well
