Poem For Thought . . . . .

If you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming 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, do

n't give way to hating,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise . . .

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;

If all man count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,

And - which is more- you'll be a man, my son!

Rudyard Kipling, abridged
