“Here on the path I venture down life’s highway, not with the fears of a closed mind, but with the dreams of a open mind, a heart filled with memories, and a free spirit filled with hopes for a better tomorrow” (Larry “Dutch” Woller) on the path least traveled…

Diary of the journey on the path least traveled..just letting the heart do the talking while the fingers do the walking while being different, being me… 🙂

( “I do not do, say or write something to been seen or heard… I  do, say or write something because it needed to be done, said or written…” ,  no nominations please, just sharing thoughts while exploring life  🙂 ).. 🙂

 

Though I so not dwell on leaving this mortal world often, once in awhile I contemplate on how I wish to be remembered, believe the following would be my epitaph….  🙂

When I die 
Give what's left of me away 
To children 
And old men that wait to die. 

And if you need to cry, 
Cry for your brother 
Walking the street beside you. 
And when you need me, 
Put your arms 
Around anyone 
And give them 
What you need to give to me.

I want to leave you something, 
Something better 
Than words 
Or sounds.

Look for me 
In the people I've known 
Or loved, 
And if you cannot give me away, 
At least let me live on your eyes 
And not on your mind.

You can love me most 
By letting 
Hands touch hands, 
By letting 
Bodies touch bodies, 
And by letting go 
Of children 
That need to be free.

Love doesn't die, 
People do. 
So, when all that's left of me 
Is love, 
Give me away.
(Epitaph, Merrit Malloy)

But, until then, I have a lot of living and giving to do… 🙂

Hello Diary,

It has been a busy week with appointments, living life and dealing with life’s challenges, so having a relaxing weekend with a spot of tea, preparing for the tomorrows… ventured out to gather weather data this morning and my friend, Mr. Spider, greeted me as always….  🙂

 

And with the sun, a hint of change in the air and the fall season in on the horizon… 🙂

So, with the rising sun.. 🙂

And a spot of tea, I contemplate my tomorrows….  🙂

A peaceful morning, watching the sun arise
Thoughts abound, while sipping on a spot of tea,
While taking in Nature’s outdoor portrait
Contemplating, on what Fate may have instore for me.

Change is slowly coming, it whispers in the winds
The door is slowly closing on past history,
With a  new awakening with the mind and spirit
But the future is still shrouded in mystery.

With the freedom of being different, in many ways
No social shackles do this mortal wear,
Do welcome change with open mind and spirit
No fear, no worry or dread do I bear.

Does change stop at mortal death, one wonders
Or does it go on forever and ever,
Will I ask the same at another time and place
Somewhere past the 12th of Never?

Will thought and spirit continue
When, as in all things, my mortal time comes to an end,
Or does all things cease to be, when
To the grave, the mortal body Fate does send.

Alas, but must deal with the present
So now will store thoughts and musings yet to be told,
For it’s down the path least traveled I do venture
To search and hopefully find….what life, and Fate, may behold.
                          ( Larry “Dutch” Woller )

And with safe harbor fading in the background, eyes on the horizon and with sails set full, it is on down the path of life I venture… 🙂

Thought I would briefly share my thoughts, and shall close for now, bring my musings to an end… but I shall return again one day, Fate be willin’ and the creeks don’t rise…  🙂

Hope the path you choose is paved with love and happiness and until we meet again…

May the love that you give
Always return to you,
That family and friends are many
And always remain true,
May your mind only know peace
No suffering or strife,
May your heart only know love and happiness
On your journey through life.
     (Larry “Dutch” Woller)
