Rudyard Kipling says in three stanzas what Ive spent the last fifteen years skirting around, so thats a good find for a Monday. Satisfied Man, Roots and Wings, We Belong Here, Watch You Grow, Thanksgiving, Men and Women and a whole lot more in twelve lines: If you can dream and not make dreams your master; If you can think and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with triumph and disaster; And treat those two imposters just the same, If you can force your heart, and nerve, and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone; And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the will which says to them, Hold on, If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds worth of distance run, Yours is the earth and everything thats in it, And, what is more, youll be a man, my son.
