Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
People are living, Needing help as they take steps I live by helping.
My happiness comes By offering a kind hand And I feel fulfilled
Car on the road side I have time, and I slow down. Knife in the darkness.
Humanity defined By helping out, but who needs My help in heaven?
Flashing red lights, Sirens come to the rescue. I will live longer.
But can I be saved? Heaven is death sentence For people like me.

Will we also have many hernias to come? * Packing in advance Why do I want to pack the toaster so badly? * Can we pack these yet? No, we'll need them for showers. Towels are important. * Wow, look what I found! So that is where that toy went under the bookshelf. * It would be helpful if we could put the kids in and tape the box shut
