I read the poem above...has been awhile....
Still brought tears to my eyes.....

If you run your life like a well-oiled machine....
Stop and ask yourself if you have time to schedule some time to smell the roses, or to have a slow dance with the one you love.....

Touching poem, that was, above...thanks Fin for sending....

One for today.....

IF.............




If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting, too,

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

If you can dream - and not makes dreams your master,

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same.



Rudyard Kipling
