In another life, I will not owe anybody anything but a "thank you" or "you're welcome". I will save for a rainy day before I save for a television. I will act in a way where my kids can learn from my actions instead of my words. God will be part of my life and not just my weekend. My mother and father will be given more admiration and less grief. My kids will be raised with the benefit of the doubt instead of in the benefits of society. My pets will be my friends and not my servants. My political party choice will not override my moral choices. My book collection will be longer and broader than my movie collection. My schooling will be judged by values other than tuition and expected salary ranges. I will thank soldiers for their courage every time I see them instead of wishing I could find the courage in myself. I will be brave, I will be strong, I will persevere. And most of all I will realize that if there is any time left, there is still time to start right away.
