The probability of going unscathed.

The probability of going unscathed.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Life is a bond
so choose your
mistakes wisely.
One never remembers
the moment being born,
but we will remember
reaching and seeing
the end if
only briefly.

Most of the time, that is. If you have an NDE, you get to go over it for as long as you like.

Thanks John, at the moment my luck is about as low as one gets. Feels like a NDE :)

Good one Andrew.
All is well with you?

Choose your mistakes wisely - that is such good advice because we all make them and some mistakes can be brushed aside quite easily., put down to lack of knowledge and we can learn from them.
