mmkamson: He ll hav to learn i know
That all men re nt just
All men re nt true
But teach him also that for every scoundrel,there is a hero
That for every selfish politician,there is a dedicated leader
Let him know that for every enemy there is a friend
Steer him away from envy if you can
Teach him the secret of quiet laughter
Let him learn early that the bullies are the easiest to lick
Teach him if you can,the wonders of books
But also give him quiet time
To ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky,
Bees in the sun and flowers on a green hill side
In the school,teach him it is far honourable to fail than to cheat
Teach him to have faith in his own ideas,even if evryone tells him they are wrong
Teaach him to be gentle with gentle people and tough with the tough
Try to giv my son the strength not to follow the crowd,when everyone is getting on the bad wagon
Teach him to listen to all men,but teach him also to filter all he ears on a screen of truth and take only the good that comes through
