I would like to offer a poem from my book..."Thoughts While Aging" to share.

I'm not as young as I once was,
but I'm as young now as I ever will be... 
and I still have the rest of my life to live.
Hallelujah!!!

I may have lost a step in my pace,
may forget a few things and skies may be gray.
But I m thankful to be alive today.
Hallelujah!!!

There are things to do, places to go, people to see,
with so many options.
It's a wonderful world.
Hallelujah!!!

So I try to greet each day with a smile on my face.
Sometmes it is not too easy.
But Hey... today IS the first day of the rest of my life.
Hallelujah!!!

What a wonderful outlook you have! It IS a wonderful world, and we have an amazing God to see us through each day, each pain, slow reactions, traveling wrinkles, and fuzzy memories! For all He has given and continues to give, I thank Him, and especially, for the gift of His Son Jesus, in whom IS LIFE ETERNAL!
Great thoughts, John!

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
