Be careful what you wish for, you may just get it ! I grew up on a farm and had very few local kids to hang with, so much of my fun, came from little adventures I embarked on around the farm or in the woods with my dog, Jerry. I often day dreamed of traveling far & wide and seeing all manner of exotic things. I didnt know it then, but along with all the adventure and sight seeing, comes a tab that eventually, has to be paid. The most expensive tab, the one that haunts me all the time, is that I missed so much of my family. Ill never recover that time, and It has left a hole in me, that cant be filled. I have a collection of memorabilia from far away places, that really means nothing to me. I have enough broken bones to rival Evil Knieval and I have missed out on ever having children. I wish, I wouldve thought things over more. Dont get me wrong, GOD has blessed me greatly, with a good job, a home and a wonderful wife, But I wish I would have stayed home more, and witnessed my nieces and nephews growing up and been there for my Mom and spent more time with my Dad. Sorry for my rambling, I dont drink much, so its gotta come out somewhere. Perhaps, theres another wayward soul reading this, who can relate. My point is this, be grateful for your loved ones, be content with what you have and dont take your family for granted, because they may not always be there. If you are like me and suffer from wanderlust, be careful in your travels. If GOD has use for you where youre going, youll do fine. If not, then may GOD bless you.
