Array ( [sid] => 175024 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Skip a rock [time] => 2013-02-05 15:08:45 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Skipping a rock on the water is comparable to life. As you look for the perfect rock so to you want the perfect life. And before we throw the rock you need to be strong as in life. And as you pull back your arm to throw the rock, so is the beginning of life.
As we look over the calm water, waiting for the right moment to throw to get as many skips over the top of the water. Our life begins the first skip or the first step in our life, the first start of many. What will be your first skip, your first steps, your first words, your first kiss, your first love? And the best thing is we can make it throw the first of many skips in life. The second skip is much like the first because it’s a new skip; it is something new in our lives, something we have never done before.
We have moved on to the second and how we learn from the first determines how we handle the second. What will be your second, what will be your second? If we can only imagine what that would be, to each their own ideas, their own thoughts. How precious they are. If we can only live in the mind of others, to see other ideas, and to enjoy others skips in life. To have the understanding that they have, their skips over the water. Then too, we look back over our lives in the skips of life, what makes us happy?
How can we teach our children to look for the perfect rock, to throw the perfect stone as it skips over the waters of life. Oh how we wish there are many skips in our life as compared to throwing the rock over the water. How wonderful it to see the rock skip on the water, to see how many skips we have make, and how proud we are to see the many skips there are in life. As to, skipping the rock over the water [comments] => 0 [counter] => 63 [topic] => 23 [informant] => pffjeff [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FamilyPoems )

Skipping a rock on the water is comparable to life. As you look for the perfect rock so to you want the perfect life. And before we throw the rock you need to be strong as in life. And as you pull back your arm to throw the rock, so is the beginning of life.

Our life begins the first skip or the first step in our life, the first start of many. What will be your first skip, your first steps, your first words, your first kiss, your first love? And the best thing is we can make it throw the first of many skips in life.
