Nothing Gold Can Stay
Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
--Robert Frost (1923)

Thank you BWhere for allowing me to snag this off your page. This was an all time favorite of mine growing up, and you have just brought tons of memories back :)
Just when I begin to think that life its self is beginning to suck, I had someone do something that made my day.
I had just got done grocery shopping and had my mom stop over at Dairy Queen so I could purchase an Artic Blast. I had just ordered it, was pulling out the $2.29 to pay for it, and this mentally challenged gentleman jumps up to the counter and said "Wait, I want to pay for it." I looked over in awe, and asked him if he was sure. He was like yes, and pulls out his debit card, and continued to pay for it. The gentleman must not have been any older then 25. I looked at him and said thank you so much as I was walking away. His reply to me was, "You're welcome, and God Bless."
Today I will forget about my problems and what has been weighing my mind down so hard.
Just remember one thing in life:
Pay it forward.
