I found this and thought to share it with you, my friends. Enjoy!
CHAPTER ONE
I walk down a street and there's a big hole. I don't see it and fall into it. It's dark and hopeless and it takes me a long time to find my way out. It's not my fault !
CHAPTER TWO
I walk down the same street. There's a big hole and I can see it, but I still fall in. It's dark and hopeless and it takes me a long time to get out. It's still not my fault.
CHAPTER THREE
I walk down a street. There's a big hole. I can see it, but I still fall in. It's become a habit. But I keep my eyes open and get out immediately. It is my fault.
CHAPTER FOUR
I walk down a street. There's a big hole. And I walk around it.
CHAPTER FIVE
I walk down a different street.

Life is a process of trail and error! I'm like this all the time in real life... it takes me FOREVER to find the right way to do something!
Am I really the first commenter on this?! I'm excited!!! :)
Thanks for sharing Shannon! It's cute! I like it a lot!
Brings me to mind of the movie Forest Gump. "My momma always told me that life was like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get."
Interesting post. God bless, Lloyd
What a cute story for such an important lesson! And doesn't it seem like its those simple choices that seem to get us sometimes. :)
I really enjoyed it. Thank you!
Haha! Great little story. I love it.
Can I just start at Chapter Five and avoid the hole all together?
LOL I was totally picturing myself falling in the hole but the only difference with me is I pictured myself sitting there wondering why no one was helping me out then getting myself out! Yes I have issues! Anyone?!!
