Before I Die

Inspired by Andreas's bucket list  (& A Life in the World of Andreas (spirous.blogspot.com)  &  About me (spirous2.blogspot.com) ), I started to draft my own bucket list yesterday. I actually started a list a few years ago, but I did not manage to get it done, or done well. I am not the type of person that knows exactly what I want for myself, or for the society, or something larger the life. I often find it easier to identify others' needs other than my own.

You've survived your life with hurt and loneliness by your side. I told you I'd never leave because of the feelings I have inside. I know you like no one I have ever known, and sometimes I wonder what I'd do if you were gone? So I have decided time answers all. If it is meant to be, t...
