Goals

A little braver when the skies are gray,

A little stronger when the road seems long,

a little more of patience through the day,

And not so quick to magnify a wrong.

A little kinder, both of thought and deed,

A little gentler with the old and weak,

Swifter to sense another's pressing need,

And not so fast the hurtful phrase to speak.

These are my goals - not flung beyond my power,

Not dreams of glory, beautiful but vain,

Not the great heights where buds of genius flower,

But simple splendors which I ought to gain.

-- Edgar A.Guest

Good and beautiful are the souls who take deeply into themselves the seeds of the Word, and keep them,
and tend them with care.

-- St Cyril of Alexandria

 Wishing you a blessed day!
