Lord, faults are inevitable, yet human
Please grant that if I may commit a hundred of them
Make me a hundred times
Wiser than before.
Desire is the mainspring of action
It is the flame
That keeps the fire of hope
Burning in our hearts.
But eagerness is the heat
That melts the candle of patience
Within us.
You will realize the true value of someone
When he is gone from you.
Do not despair
When things go wrong,
For each day that passes
A new day is always coming
And with each new day
Is a new hope, a new strength
And a new way.
To my beloved bird,
I wish I could carry you in my wings
So you never have to fly
I wish we could love forever this way
So you never have to go away…
I’d rather have a rose
That I could smell and feel today
Than have a garden of flowers
In my mind, that I couldn’t even see.
Dreams are beautiful
But only reality can make us happy…
I learned that I can talk
And I spoke my mind,
I learned that I can walk
And I was going places
I learned that I can sing
And I was singing songs
I learned that I can hear
And I started to listen
I learned that I can see
And I started to praise.
But when I learned to love,
How I wanted to give it away…
Work is the poor man’s ticket
To his dining table
Vice is the fool’s passport
To his self destruction…
If only I could gaze at a bud
And watch till it opens
To become a blossom,
If only I can catch a star
And fly with it thru time and space,
If only I could see the hearts of men
And hear their cries within,
I would be the greatest poet
That I could ever be…
Brave is the man who can face his fears
Strong is the man who can carry his weaknesses
Wise is the man who can admit his faults…
Experience-
The lives of Great men-
The mistakes that men have committed-
And
The evil that men do-
These are the greatest teachers
That this world has ever had…
