Time out

That phase of life where you seek more wisdom, more decisiveness, more common sense. When you not only realize but also accept that you can't please everyone. And you stop trying, minimizing the damage as a function of time. When you realize you, at times, have to act as your own sounding board. When you strive not towards material success, but towards a stellar mental and spiritual make up.

Make mistakes
But be gracious enough to apologize
Be sensible enough to learn
And never shy away from good advice

Never pray
For all your desires and wants
But for what you need
It's only the foolish luck daunts


Chin up, level your head

Square you shoulders, walk ahead

Don't be naive

In your desire to please one and all

But keep your humble nature

The more you bow, the taller you are

Keep in touch

With your inner self, it's all within

Pray for wisdom and fortitude

And meet all your troubles with a grin

Chin up, level your head
Square your shoulders, walk ahead

-- To my all sounding boards --
May I always have to strength to get up from a fall.
