Every time my mom would come over to our house,she would always read this poem that was hanged on the wall near or dining area and she would read it over and over.My mom is a poetic and she has a lot of poem collections on her journal.After reading it,she would say " im gonna copy this one,its so inspiring and beautifully done.."
HERE IT GOES..:
BE THE BEST OF WHATEVER YOU ARE
IF YOU CANT BE A PINE ON TOP OF THE HILL,
BE A SHRUB IN THE VALLEY- - -
BUT BE THE BEST LITTLE SHRUB BY THE SIDE OF THE HILL.
BE A BUSH,IF YOU CANT BE A TREE
WE CAN'T ALL BE CAPTAINS,WE BE GOT TO BE CREW
THERE'S SOMETHING ALL OF US HERE.
THERE'S BIG WORK T DO,THERE'S LESSER TO DO,
AND THE TASK WE MUST DO IS THE NEAR.
IF YOU CANT BE A HIGHWAY,THEN JUST BE A TRAIL;
IF YOU CAN'T BE A SUN, THEN BE A STAR.
IT ISN'T IN SIZE THAT YOU WIN OR YOU FAIL......
BE THE BEST OF WHATEVER YOU ARE.....
by : d.malloch
Isn't it nice?if you cant be the best of whatever you are,then there's always an option.And whatever that option maybe,,just be the best of what you can be...
