Always looking up
Instead of looking down;
Always closing your eyes
Instead of looking around
Missing out on life’s
Greatest adventures;
Missing out on the fun
And getting all the treasures
Just open up your eyes
And take a step out your door;
Live your life to the fullest
For you never know what’s in store

That guy looks like the one who starred in Honey I Shrunk the Kids...Rick Moranis or something like that. You'd better post a picture of you on your guest page so we don't think that's really you in this picture! LOL! .

A little whimsy; a little tongue-in-cheek...
...a whole lot of humor and wisdom, which often seem to go hand in hand.
Hey, what about that guy in the black shorts? He makes me wanna laugh! I don't know why...

This was really great! I loved the picture of everyone looking up! So many different takes you could have gotten from just this one picture! Good luck to you in the contest! Noble1
