Array ( [sid] => 56069 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I BELIEVE #1 [time] => 2004-07-13 20:29:49 [hometext] => I believe many things.....but these things I know for sure. [bodytext] =>

"I BELIEVE #1"

I wasn't born a few days ago, I've learned
As they say, "School of Hard Knocks!"
Deep within my brain, they're patterned.
Pain and experence combined, shocks!

I believe.....
Our background influenced who we be.......
Who we become is our responsibility!
Good friends can sometime hurt us.
You must forgive in a big way, with kindness.

I believe.....
To be the person you desire, takes a long time.
You can keep going long after you can't
We are responsible for everything we do,
in our entire lifetime.
No matter how we feel, or feelings are scant!

I believe.....
We must all learn self-control.....
Self-discipline is needed to be whole.
Heroes are people who do what needs
to be done?
Not contemplating the consequences,
they spring into action!

I believe.....
Money is a lousy way of keeping score.
My best friend and I can do, or not do,
lifting our spirits to soar!
Some people that you expect to kick you
when you are down,
Are the same people that lift you, and
never put you down!

(to be continued in the next ("I believe #2)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Kindness is more important than wisdom,
and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom!

I loved the poem as much as I did the comics. " School Of Hard Knocks " is a good term. Great advice you packed into this piece.
