"It Is Not Easy
To apologize,
To begin over,
To be unselfish,
To take advice,
To admit error,
To face a sneer,
To be charitable,
To keep on trying,
To be considerate,
To avoid mistakes,
To endure success,
To profit by mistakes,
To forgive and forget,
To think and then act,
To keep out of the rut,
To make the best of little,

To maintain a high standard,
To shoulder a deserved blame,
To recognize a silver lining-- But It Always Pays."
I put everybody that comes into my life in a category of a tree. Some are like the leaves, when the wind blows they blow with it, they're unstable, the seasons change and they whither and die.. Others are like a branch, can make you think they're a good friend, they're strong and they got your back, but once you step out there on them, once something goes wrong, they break and leave you high and dry. But if you find you two or three people in your life that are like the roots of that tree, you are blessed! Those are the kind of people that aint goin no where and if those roots werent there, the tree couldnt live.... "Marissa Wright"
