I was shocked, confused, bewildered

as I entered Heaven's door,

Not by the beauty of it all,

by the lights or its decor.



But it was the folks in Heaven

who made me sputter and gasp--

the thieves, the liars, the sinners,

the alcoholics, the trash.



There stood the kid from seventh grade

who swiped my lunch money twice.

Next to him was my old neighbor

who never said anything nice.



Herb, who I always thought

was rotting away in hell,

was sitting pretty on cloud nine,

looking incredibly well.



I nudged Jesus, "What's the deal?

I would love to hear Your take.

How'd all these sinners get up here?

God must've made a mistake.



And why's everyone so quiet,

so somber? Give me a clue."

"Hush, child," said He. "They're all in shock.

No one thought they'd see you."

Hey Rick?  Thats a good one.:)

Hello mate,

I'm good. Been transplanting trees today, so am pretty dusty. Alls well on the farm and the critters are a bit noisy tonight as I have just rotated them into new pens and they are all singing out wanting their old "comfy" pens back.

Change...even animals feel it, huh?

The days have cooled off quite a bit now, and we've had some pleasant 30's so I've been back out there fiddling about. I have about 20 week old ducklings at the moment and feel like I am living in a Kleenex ad...

Found your post on personality disorders very interesting and have spent most of the night in that site..Focus adolescent services. It is very good and I like their approach - fair, but skewed toward healthy recovery instead of meds.

You drive cabs, huh? Is that your amends for all the times you harrassed cab drivers in the good ol' days? The poor drivers...gotta be a nightmare working nights on the weekends, aye?

Time to hit the sack mate...Keep grinning and have a great day.

Nic
