Most of us go through life avoiding the parts we don't want to face. This collection of poems is designed to help us face the live we have lived in order to better enjoy the years we have left. These poems are in no particular order--just like life and its experiences his us randomly, except for age. Some will bring back memories from the past, others will remind you of missed opportunities. In either case the thought will help prepare you for the challenges ahead. We will gain from our experiences, but those who also gain from the experiences of others are the ones who truly succeed. None of us desire to experience all that life offers. Pick and choose the topics that fit you best--but remember, we all need the Savior.
