And then there’s Samuel

Once upon a time
there was a wise biker
named Samuel
he wrote the following….

FAMILY!!

We are merely guests aboard this train called life.
And,
since we didn’t purchase the tickets,
we have no knowledge or fore warning
of just when our station will appear
and our ride will end.

All we can do is enjoy the ride,
and if there are bumps along the way,
just hope that the shock absorbers work.
And if they don’t,
try to land on your feet,
for it helps smooth out the rough spots on this road called life.

No matter how rough today might have been,
go to bed each night knowing that you gave it your best,
and tomorrow is a new beginning,
with a complete new set of rules and rewards.

And,
if you live each and every day
the very best way that you know how,
if,
in all your endeavors,
you gave all there was to give,
in every way that you knew how,
then no man,
nor any God can dare pass judgement upon you,
nor condemn you if it wasn’t enough.

For by doing your very best,
you,
my friend,
will have paid your dues in full.

Samuel passed away recently after a lengthy battle with cancer
but he will forever be remembered
for his wit
his humor
and his grace under pressure

More on Lucky…

Lucky is still in a drug induced coma
he has a large blood clot in his brain
and his wife and the Dr’s are trying to decide
if the best solution is surgery
or
wait to see if it dissipates by itself

we have a club event in Princeton this weekend
I was feeling disrespectful about going
but I have been made to see
that Lucky would be the first person to tell us to go

so I’m going….
I need it
work still sux
there is an air of desperation there
that I just don’t like
