Jim's Philosophy of life
© D.J. C.
Don’t be frightened of the future
Never wonder about the past
Don’t get lost in a room of mirrors
In a home that's made of glass.
Look where you are going,
Remember where you’ve been;
you will see the light of day,
In a world that's filled with sin.
Never grasp for shadows
or be afraid of the dark.
And don't dodge reflections
in a house that's cold and stark.
One hundred years of images
maybe bits of broken glass.
But an open door lies beckoning,
beyond, a field of grass.
Errors are just be stepping stones
on which we tread upon
While remembering every pathway
we can reach a brighter dawn.
Feel the earth beneath your feet
And smell the distant sea.
When you turn around to take a look
You were blessed to have the key...

TO THE YOUNG
Climb the mountains, start with little ones then reach for the highest you can. Never give up, they may not be as tall as you think. Explore, dream your dreams and follow them... Never shun activity, both physical and mental. Not only good for the body but good for the heart, mind and soul. You can be a survivor on the adventure of Life...
Some day you may be as old as I am, please, take my advice, and don't waste your short life. Invest your youthful vitality in your art and creativity. Share the best of your spirit with the world. Your body will die, but a spirit can not die. So don't worry about petty things like bodies, money and possessions. They pass with the body and are meaningless. Don't worry what anyone thinks of you, Don't seek approvel, except from yourself. Your art, creativity, ideas and character are the mental and moral qualities of your sprit.
Your beauty endurse forever, as you do
Always think positive - positive thoughts lead to positive results - negative thoughts lead to negative results...
