I have overcome my enemies

They have overcome me.

Pain and passion, two old friends,

Have been my constant companions.

I have screamed with rage.

I have exalted with joy.

I have doubted the existence of God.

I have prayed to God.

I have loved.

I have been loved.

I have known wealth.

I have known poverty.

I have consorted with righteous men.

I have consorted with evil men.

I have become wary of each.

I have lived life fully.

I am Man.

 

Raymond Morrow

Such a powerful statement! Sounds like you have and are living life full throttle as it should be with all its up, downs and bumps...

Be always safe,

River of Memories: An Appalachian Boyhood by David Thompson

For a time, I perched myself on a flat rock, comparing my life with the Guyandotte River. Just as its tributaries replenish it daily, changing it in some small—sometimes great—degree, so have the day-to-day occurrences of life changed me. Like the ri
