i tried to return a response to Pp's comment below, but a message says 'The page cannot be found" .

Excellent poem! I am really happy that Steve decided to change the course of his life and searched for other options rather than blowing a hole in his brain. Maybe his horrid dream had something to do with it! Your poem has send a great message to many in need of hope and encouragement. Thanks Bri for a great poem.
