If you can learn to look past another's faults,
to take a critical look in the mirror,
to forgive and defend the ones you love
to pick up where you left off,
to clean up your messes
and lend a hand to another to clean up theirs,
to obey stop signs and ignore insults
to never expect more than you deserve
or take more than you give
to turn the other cheek and try again
to admit defeat without labeling it failure
to sing when you'd rather cry
to take care of business when you'd rather play
to listen without interrupting
to admit that you don't really know everything about anything
to take the smallest piece
to suffer without complaint
and laugh without restraint
you have found a far greater slice of sanity than the greater majority of the world
and you don't need anyone to tell you who you are;
your character speaks before you enter a room
and when you are alone, you remain exactly you
because you are content.
