Mid Life Crisis

 

There comes a time in every life

When you take stock of what you have done

And decide what things make up your mind

 

You turn the lights up high

Dark corners are laid bare

No sleeping dog is allowed to lie

 

And each of you must confront

In no uncertain terms

Those things that you most fear

 

Thus will you see the chances are

The things you most dread

Are those you yourself set free

yes, I really like this, it has great balance.
For me its true that the chances we take individually are those which may not succeed but which rise and fall on both our talents and our desire to continue in uncertainty. Facing reality .. I feel Kipling's IF coming on...!
