Puppets on a String!


oem #4: Puppets on a String
 
Is it a state of confusion or unlimited knowledge?
Where are we all to go?
When one is down and beat,
Why do we allow?
Many questions, which have been asked before?
The commone resolution is one must persevere!
There are many paths, to take or not?
What is the loss, is one takes no risk?
There is a method which is sure to complete,
This approach is often ill fated,
The question remains!
What is the euphoria of the misery?
What must one do to realize their fate?
Results are so inestimable, but the results are so extraordinary!!
What will you do?
Be a puppet or an innovator like I?
A "Challenged Conquistador!"
Risk takers can be winners!
Life is Risk!
No Question, No Rewards!
Nothing!!!!!!!!

Believe Achieve Receive Success, even when you are told you are nothing & you can show everyone, just how much wiser is God in heaven, He makes no junk as I've been lead to lead most of my life thinking I was, but now in Texas, life is far better! As a Beaumount Toastmaster, should you still have questions or doubts as I've faced most of my life but especially the last 25 years of my life, thanks to UAM's neglect/disrespect! 870-723-5530 Mr. Leonard/460-1158 University of Arkansas Head 1992-today Coach Early www.kfdm.com/features/pay-it-forward/pay-it-forward-beaumont-man-dedicated-to-educating-children-about-bicycle-safety My work "Challenged Conquistadors, Inc.", was referenced to Harvard University Howard Gardner's Book The Unschooled Mind, 1991, in 1996 by Southern Arkansas University Professor Emeritus Ida Flemister! I was to teach school but due to my making Arkansas accessible with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, SAU ensured I was not allowed to teach school with 1997 Arkansas Governor's Commission for People with Disabilities Teaching Scholarship, thus last year in Beaumont, Texas; Texas Governor Abbott was not allowed to ensure I taught school since May 2017, nor March 2018. Freedom is not for everyone it seems, as the Sergeant at Arms, Toast Master, & National Science Teachers Association Member 2261324?
