The road.....

Sometimes the greatest gift we have in life is to look back and say......."I made good decisions, I made bad decisions, but I made decision's".......and the following is a story about a decision I made that made a difference in my life...now......

The following song reminds me of making decisions. Tonight my Road behind is helping my Friend Doris just a few short months ago. She had just parked on main street in St. Edward, got out of her car and was trying to get on the sidewalk. She was having trouble cause it was slick. I stepped over the curb, reached out my hand to hers and said "Doris let me help you, so you don't fall" I made sure she made it to the bank....and now just two months later Doris is gone........so...

March is my lyric month so today it is:

The Road you Leave Behind by David Lee Murphy

I remember the night my dad stopped the car
And got out in the rain
Changed a blown out tire on a car
For a family with out of state plates
I said dad did we know those folks
As they waved and drove out of sight
He just smiled as he started the car
He said son not 'til tonight

You see the road you leave behind you
Is another road you're gonna have to come back down
It's just the way this big old world turns 'round
You'll find somehow somewhere someplace sometime
You gotta go back down the road you leave behind

Stuck out on the highway one night
Many years gone by
Had the hood of my truck pulled up
My ol' gas tank was dry
Some ol' guy gettin' off on the night shift
Pulled up to check on me
He said I been in your shoes before son
And it's no place to be

You see the road you leave behind you
Is another road you're gonna have to come back down
It's just the way this big old world turns 'round
You'll find somehow somewhere someplace sometime
You gotta go back down the road you leave behind

I said what do I owe you friend you could easily passed me by
He said next time it might be me son you don't me a dime

You see the road you leave behind you
Is another road you're gonna have to come back down
It's just the way this big old world turns 'round
You'll find somehow somewhere someplace sometime
You gotta go back down the road you leave behind


So just do something nice for someone........if you really appreciate it, it will make a difference in your life....because you never know when you will need a helping hand.........
