Live Backwards

By Theodore R. Goyins, III


If I could start at 100 years of age and work backwards I would
I could see my end from the beginning
I would see how my whole life would play out and there would be no question about who I was to become.
And they say that women age better than men do
So my love I could meet you in the middle and we shall enjoy our lives together.
I would hate for you to see me to grow old but only for you to see me grow younger.
To live backwards I would grow younger as my kids grew older making it easier for me to keep up as they ran about.

  2. "Begin With the End in Mind". One of the habits in the Stephen Covey book, "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People". You have conveyed that very essence in your writing, that each day should be lived knowing that His plan for our lives is on point whether you live it forward or backwards!
