Three Things this Biker will let go…
2007-11-09 14:46:00 We all want to preserve what he have come to posses in our lifetime. Whether material possessions or ideals that we value, we want to prolong their instances in our lives as long as they serve their purpose. And we do find ways to pursue pathways where we can enjoy them. We want to hold on to those that give pleasure, whether guilty or not, as long as we can. There are people who would not trade time with their loved ones for anything in this world. Some of us give more value to material wealth than physical or even spiritual health, that they are capable of stepping on other people just to obtain what their vile hearts want. There are those who pursue celebrity status because their inflated ego demands attention. I received yet another tag from Becca and this time she wants me to list three things that I would never let go. But instead of following her instructions, I will do the opposite. I will list three things that I would like to let go in life. It would be like an unb... More About: Biker , Things , Let Go
