In the mirror
Look into the mirror. Not just at the face. Look into your own eyes. You are looking at the only person you have to put up with the rest of you life. Be honest with yourself. You can't lie to you. You will catch you every time. You can't steal from yourself. Be honest. Except who you are. Become your own best friend. You are the one who has to Deeside to love you or hate you. If you hate you. You will always hold you back. If you love you you will take better care of you. If you don't like who you are change. You alone can change you. If there are things you don't like get rid of them. Things you like improve soon them. Your happiness is up to you. You alone can help you. You can only depend on you. Like yourself. Forgive yourself. Ask God to forgive you and repent. Stop hurting yourself and start helping yourself. Look yourself in the eyes. Do nothing that you can't forgive yourself for. Take care of you nobody else will your whole life. Smile tomorrow is a new day and a new adventure. Your world will be better that way. The whole world would be a better place if everyone would do this.

b]!The Appalachian Trail
In early America Mountain Men and Native Americans had developed a series of foot paths they used for traversing mountains and following game animals. America developed, Mountain Men and some Indian tribes became history, but many of their paths through the woods and over mountains remained. In 1921 the American Congress approved the concept of determining which foot paths could be connected as a means of preserving past ways and heritage while offering traverse of rural American woods and desert. In the 1930s with the help of Roosevelt's Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) some of the trails were extended and opened to the public. The Appalachian Trail (AT) is one of them.
The AT is a marked foot path about 2,200 miles (3,500 kilometers) long. Located in 14 Eastern States it wanders North and South. By design many of the areas it traverses are designated as National or State Parks and intentionally kept wild and rural. In some parts of the trail a person hiking may be more than 30 miles from the nearest town or paved road. There are places where the trail unavoidably descends into a town and passage through the town is unavoidable, but those are intentionally rare. Wild animals (both dangerous ones and not dangerous ones) are often encountered on the trail. Much of the AT is over mountainous terrain. It is not unusual for someone hiking the entire Appalachian Trail (thousands do so every year) to lose 50 or more pounds (i.e., 80+ kilos) during the months long hike. It is said if you are not physically fit when you begin, you probably will be by the time you finish the Trail.
The AT does cross many roads. Sometimes by an overhead bridge, and sometimes you have to run or walk across the road. It also of course connects with or crosses many other trails, some marked, some not marked. Some go East and West, some go no where in particular. Follow the patches of white paint on trees and signs (a few posted by volunteers) to not get lost. You need to bring your own food and water and a sleeping bag. Be prepared to go to the bathroom in the woods as public latrines are few. Please bury your poop and don't litter. For the most part weapons are prohibited on the trail, but camp knives are permitted in most of the states.
Hikiing the AT is considered a rite of passage. It changes you. Many start the hike, then quit after only a few days. When it rains the rocks get slippery and everything becomes mud. The scenery is often beautiful and breath taking. Hopefully you remain hydrated on the really hot days. If the idea of waking up in the morning to find a spider crawling on you, or see a snake slithering by terrifies you, the AT is not for you.
Two weeks ago with my friend (unofficial step daughter) I hiked a portion of the AT in Maryland. Maryland is considered one of the easiesr states on the AT because much of it is flat. Nonetheless I hiked up to Annapolis Rock (elevation 1,700 feet). A fairly rocky and steep walk of several miles. We saw folks of all races doing the hike. Men, women and even some with children. I enjoyed it a lot and recommend the AT to all.

Perceptions of Hopes & Dreams
I know for sure, everyone has dreams & hopes to explore each of some
possibilities if they do come up. Why not. It doesn`t hurt anyone, unless you`re the type to do something on purpose.
Without a start, keeping your mind on certain things, you can`t explore new things, so we take chances.
Not all things come to pass. But at least, you know you tried to make whatever you dream to make something happen for your own destiny.
If you don`t try....lets say, "You may never know" or ask, "Why did I wait ", or "I should have".
We all have experienced things like that.
I was fifteen, at the time. I think my mom dressed me down, with hexagon metal glasses.
But I know we didn`t have money, being a child, that was born to an immigrant couple. I was very aware.of the times of The Great Depression.
I dreamt of being different than I was. Being a cancer sign...this loomed over other things, in the back of my mind....always, pretended being a wife, & mother, when young. But in school, mom could not communicate properly, with teachers & had to have a teacher convince her I could not see the school board work, & needed glasses.
Not too much attention was paid for being clean, we had no tub or shower. So, mom visited my aunt, often, when she took a towel & soap with her, on frequent visits. "By the way, can we use your tub?" -was a question that was etched in my mind..(very embarrassing).
But I over-came that. I was going to make sure, I`d use my dreams & make due with imagination.
I looked for ads in the paper.Being a waitress was appealing to me.
We moved across the street. -Don`t even think on this one thing.
My Mother had a idea (or dream), to build a house, when my dad finally got work which was hard to do, at the time. She met a Polish woman who use to loan money, at 2% interest, to people of the same decent, nearby. She heard of it through others -except my dad. She barrowed $1,000. 00. My dad knew nothing of this.
(I was not to say anything, since I was only 6 yrs old-otherwise, I`d get her eagle eye).. She`d pay it back, since Pop, gave here the check, getting enough for his Imperial whiskey, & a little bit for tobacco, for his pipe.
We had a porch at the old house, with homemade furniture, an oak table that didn`t fit in the 3 bedroom house.
And, of course, my mom`s homemade rocker, which she always used. especially, if she had an idea, for something, as mentioned. (She always rocked faster when her mind was really active!!) I noticed that.
She eventually paid the woman back in a year. My dad still knew nothing, except it was appealing to him to get excess wood to make things, & they became bigger as time went on. Asking if he good have the left-over wood, still not knowing the house was to be ours. The stuff got bigger. My mom found a designer, & he made some plans for her urgings....two bedrooms, one bath, living room, kitchen, etc. The house went up. Meanwhile, with my mom`s raised eye brows, watching my dad bring enough to build a shed on the side of our small house, she`d have to figure a way, to let him knw what she did. (I`m the one who let it slip).
We took a walk, & I mentioned, looking at the house, & said, proudly. "OURS:???? My mom looked at me for a second, & held my hand until it was white.....
My dad had a questioned look. "vat you did , now"?? She had to tell him what happened . She barrowed another $2,000.00 & was half paid back. My brother was drafted, as the war was in progress. He sent money enough to pay the rest. Can`t believe my dad took the credit...& my mom let him.-some dreams do come true.
Back to me, looking in the paper, with meager clothing, I changed & sewed & added stuff to, I found I
could take a bus, earned enough money to pay for Patricia Steven`s Modeling & Finishing school. I did model for 3 yrs, doing live statues I department store windows, & modeled play clothing.
