Kids: They Grow Up So Fast

Going thru my hard drives looking for photos and happened across these two pics I'd saved.. couple of young kids that took separate paths in life as they grew up.

Goes to show, you never know how your kids might eventually turn out. They grow up so fast.

Barack Obama

Osama bin Laden

Kinda makes me think when I see kids around on the street..

I had a girlfriend once that would get mad if I was kind to or helped a bum out.. I used to tell her that people don't start out to be a bum or a serial killer.. they were once a little baby held in some loving mom or dad's arms. That used to make her mad too.

I gotta say if I died tomorrow, I couldn't complain much.. done and seen alot, more than most. Been on both sides of the fence, rich and poor, loved and hated.. I try to see some good in everybody.

Obama's parent have every reason to be proud. Here's a man that had the guts to admit he used drugs and inhaled and overcame whatever adversity he was dealt and rose to become president less than 50 years after the beginning of civil rights in this country... we should all be proud.

Looking at that pic of Osama, I wonder if anyone had an inkling of the direction his life would take?

Like I said, makes you wonder when you spot a group of kids how they'll end up.
