THE LUCKY ONE

Don't feel unfortunate,
Just let me explain.
If someone said,
Your boats come in.
I'd probably be on the plane,
It's been like that all my life
Introduced to two young beauties,
One I fancied the other not.
The one I did not became my wife,
I've loved her all our married life
and then some more.
I'm quite sure I'll always love her
More than I can say. Looking back
I wouldn't want it any other way.

the choice is not that important, the fact that you love is for me the main thing even if I commented somewhere else that divorce reveals a lot too, maybe our life is so short that we don't have the time to realise what life really is. If we lived 500 years instead of 80, what would be the effect of the philosophers and religious people who live 80 years old on us? Maybe we would think that they are babbling for little kids?
