I see here two paths.One towards a righteous living.The other towards sin. In life, we are confronted by choices. These choices influence our future ambitions, goals, and destinies. As believers in God, our desire should always be to follow the path of righteous living and resist the way of sin. © Chad Damitz, 2020.

Poem: Escape From The City
In this compact, bustling city. I long to see the starry night. To escape this smoggy sight. Missing valley tulips so pretty. Instead of daily honking horns. Let's hear the bluebirds sing and fly.
