I Wish that I could turn back time..............

I wish that I could turn back time
Where things really mattered
Time wasn't an issue
Families cherished the times
around the dinner table so
they could catch up on their day

I wish that I could turn back time
Where children actually listened
To their parents
They paid  attention  and
Sat up straight in their chairs

I wish that I could turn back time
Where TV was UHF and
A person had to get up
and change the channel
if they wanted to

I wish that I could turn back time
Where people sat on their porches at night
Everyone on the street knew each other
Everyone watched out for
 each others kids

I wish that I could turn back time
To that place where God wasn't avoided
in conversations because you didn't know
If the other person would be offended
If you spoke His name

I wish that I could turn back time
But, I can't.........
But I can remember those times
And talk about them with others.............

Change is Coming!!!

On December 28th I will start a new phase of my life. I will be training to be a Certified Medical Assistant. I have wanted to do this since I was 18. I never really had the courage to do it. But, now I do. I have had many other jobs that made me happy but not satisfied. I couldn't go home at the end of the day and truly say that I was content with what job I had done that day. Since I was 18 I have been a file clerk, cashier, cook, fast food manager, retail manager, owner of a cleaning business, Assistant property manager and the list goes on.I don't know what this next journey will bring, but I am looking forward to the challenge of the walk. I have a goal of missing no days and also a 4.0 gpa.If I do this, I will be able to wear a Red robe instead of a Black robe like the usual. It may seem silly to care about this, but I need that "brass ring" to reach for so the ride won't be so hard. I know this is short, but I was also cooking at the same time.:)
