I did more than my share of drinking and therefore got into more than my share of trouble. I decided one day that I would not allow the past to destroy my future, my children's future, or indeed, the future of those who cared for me. I mark my anniversary with this poem. THE PATH MY CHILDREN TRAVEL Year by year, I walked my trail of tears, My spirit slept, during my drinking years, Then one day, when I stood barefoot, on a road of gravel, It came to me, that I make the path my children travel. I asked myself, who has a life to be thrown away? Who would want the heart of their children to hurt someday? The examples we set deserve no cries of cheer, When our spirit sleeps, year by year.
