A Few Couplets
If you're sitting in the shade, drinking a tea.
Remember that someone planted the tree.
--
Our time on Earth is not very long.
So why can't we all just get along.
--
Failure is just a brief stop.
On the staircase to the top.
--
Live your life for all it's worth.
Our time is short here on Earth.
--
Never give up on your dreams.
They may be closer than they seem.
--
Someone is always trying to change you.
You just keep doing all the good you do.
--
Whether you win or you fail,
life is its own fairy tale.
--
If you work too much at your job,
of your life you will be robbed.

Howdy y’all. It’s me, ninong7 aka UJ aka John. Just a short intro about myself. I am a Texan that has retired in the Philippines. I moved to the Philippines with my wife back in May 2010. I am retired from the US Air Force. The music I like is mostly Classic Country and Classic Rock. I guess you could say that I am “Classic”. I play dominoes when I can find someone that will play, I play chess, cribbage, spades, hearts, Empire Builder, Rail Baron, Acquire and a few other games. I like to write poems and stories (although pretty novice) and I love learning about history, just about any history. I’m at home on my computer a lot but if I could afford to, I’d be traveling and documenting my travels to post in my blog. I hope to get to know a lot of you through PeakD and Discord.
