Taking a Stand

As we travel along life’s pathway, circumstances and events shape our life. These poems were written because of incidents that happen on my life’s pathway. For instance, the poem "People Watching" was written while sitting at the airport waiting to catch a flight and observing people around me. The chapter friendship was written after reuniting with a childhood friend after not seeing her for many years. "Ever Stop and Think" was written in the quietness of the night while thinking about life. This part of the book is about life issues we do daily in our lives and do not think about.

I hope that people who read this book enjoy it as much as I enjoyed and had fun writing it. I also hope it would inspire them to stand strong on things in life they believe in, and it will help them to think more when having to make decision on life’s matters how it will affect them and others around them.
