Date Posted：08-10-2020 07:23Copy HTML Change What
The skies are blue I hear the birds sing So why should I change a thing Everything is hunky dory But life could have been a different story I’ve enjoyed the life I’ve led Things could have been so different instead The skies are blue, the birds still sing So why should I change a single thing For if I changed anything you see That wouldn’t be the real me So if I let things remain It’s still me playing the same game

Re：Deezee's Challenge: Change What Date Posted：09-10-2020 11:29Copy HTML I think the expression of 'happy with your lot' comes to mind, Tony, and its an enviable situation/life. Also the 'chicken and the egg' for it's so good to be able to live without question of what might have been, to feel that it has all been worthwhile which it no doubt has, but surely..."You must wonder?" sometimes...was I right.. I like what you say here, Les Opposites exist by virtue of each other

Re：Deezee's Challenge: Change What Date Posted：09-10-2020 07:37Copy HTML Zy, who hasn't had the thought, "I wonder if" But you cannot go back to see. Am I happy with my lot, you've got to play the cards you are dealt with, good or bad, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. But honestly I wouldn't change a thing...Tony (potleek) |

Re：Deezee's Challenge: Change What Date Posted：10-10-2020 10:46Copy HTML Hi Tony, The skies being blue and the birds singing are happening anyway, regardless of you, though its nice that you appreciate them and of course wouldn't change those things. If, as well, you wouldn't change anything about yourself, you're a lucky man, Tony, lol. I understand when you say that if you could actually change something about yourself, you would no longer be you. I mean, I'd like to have more hair on my head, but that wouldn't change me, the person, the personality. However, I'm also happy under blue skies with birds singing, with or without hair.
