Welcome to my universe planet members. DON`T FORGET
TO HIT MY G-BOOK.
WHAT YOU POSSESS IS YOUR OWN KINGDOM
WHAT YOU TELL IS YOUR OWN STORY
WHAT YOU LOVE IS YOUR OWN POWER
WHAT YOU LIVE IS YOUR OWN GLORY
"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, People may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are sucessful, you will win
some false friends and some true
enemies.
Suceed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building,
Someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness,
they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today,
People will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have,
and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you`ve got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway."
~ The Man in the Glass ~
When you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day,
Just go to the mirror and look at yourself
And see what that man has to say
For it isn`t your father or mother or wife
Whose judgment upon you must pass
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one staring back from the glass
You may be like Jack Horner and chisel a plum
And think you`re a wonderful guy.
But the man in the glass says you`re only a bum
If you can`t look him straight in the eye.
He`s the fellow to please - never mind all the rest,
For he`s with you clear to the end.
And you`ve passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the man in the glass is your friend.
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years
And get pats on the back as you pass.
But your final reward will be heartache and tears
If you`ve cheated the man in the glass.
LOVE OR INFATUATION.
INFATUATION: Is instant desire. It is on set of glands calling to another.
