[hometext] => This poem is for a very special women in my life by the of E. Robinson. I love you!
[bodytext] => Do not think of what you do not have; Instead, appreciate what you have and can still have. Do not think of things lost; Instead, value what you still have and may yet find. Do not cry over spilled milk; Instead, rejoice in what was left. Do not think of what you are not; Instead, be humble with what you are and can still become. Do not think of what others say you are; Instead, concern yourself with what you affirm to be. Do not think of the hours and days past; Instead, look eagerly to times that are yet to come. Do not think of what you failed to do; Instead, think of those that you were able to do and can still best do. Do not think of mistakes committed; Instead, count the things you did right. Do not think much of the pain you have caused; Instead, plan for ways to make amends. Do not think of the sufferings you now bear; Instead, look to the comfort when relief draws near. Do not consume yourself with thoughts of what could have been; Instead, marvel at what has become and will become. Do not be anxious to attain greater happiness; Instead, content yourself with the little things which bring you bliss. Do not aspire to fill your cup at once; Instead, have the patience to do it little by little. And if by chance you fail, do not fret over the empty part on top; Instead, celebrate the space filled up. Do not condemn nature when it is at its worst; Instead, think of the times when it was at its best. Do not blame luck for things you miss; Instead, learn from things in which you have been remiss. Nor should you curse luck or others for life's misfortunes; Instead, accept them as part of life. I say then, Live fully, die a little, Learn much but question less. Have just enough but give much more, Be contented each time to crave much less. Doubt less and affirm a lot, Understand more, and be understood less. Worry a little but hope you must, Accept all, resist the least. For all things happen, In due time they must.
