THE DANDLE BOARD
Watch out for the dandle board of life!
As you all know, life is full of ups and
and downs. Most of us who have lived
long enough to qualify for the moniker
of senior citizen, have come to realize
that we sit upon a board that often
teeters, except, of course, when it
totters.
Many of us have experienced those back
end splinters while awkwardly positioned
upon this seesaw we call life. A few,
including myself, have actually fallen off
our dandle board while trying to balance
our poor choices with those waxed more
prudent. And, we have a found a price is
almost always paid.
Life, itself, may force us to ride the teeter
totter. But, the final outcome of our ride
may depend on our choices made along
the way, and and our ability to balance.
