Would you care, would you be sad or maybe even mad?</p> <p>What if at the end of this world your efforts had all been in vain; you hadn&#39;t achieved what you had once hoped to achieve: could you withstand the agonising pain?</p> <p>What if someone else had taken your place, stolen your dreams and destroyed your grace?</p> <p>Would you surrender to defeat, or would you get right back up onto your feet and look determination straight in the face?</p> <p>What if your children were sorely disappointed in you? Wanted you to be so much more? Resented you for walking out that door?</p> <p>Would it cut you to the core?</p> <p>You could go on and on forever more in endless reproach. Remembering and then regretting. Remorseful to the extreme.</p> <p>You could wish your life away.</p> <p>Or you could turn it around, learn from your many mistakes and try now to cherish every day.</p> <p>What if you were I and I were you; would you be any happier, could you be true?</p> <p>What if I left it all up to you, what would you do ... tell me, just what would you do?<br /> ***********************************************************************<br /> IN A SKY FULL OF PEOPLE, ONLY SOME WANT TO FLY<br /> ISN&#39;T THAT CRAZY?<br /> (I WANT TO FLY!)<br /> *********************************************************************** </p>
