Are You As Good A Person As Your Dog?
|
|
If
|
you can start the day without coffee and keep going cheerfully all day long, | |
If
|
you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains, | |
If
|
you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles, | |
If
|
you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time, | |
If
|
you can overlook it when those you love take it out on you when, through no fault of yours, something goes wrong, | |
If
|
you can take criticism and blame without resentment, | |
If
|
you can ignore a friend's limited education and never correct him, | |
If
|
you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend, | |
If
|
you can face the world without lies and deceit, | |
If
|
you can conquer tension without medical help, | |
If
|
you can relax without liquor, | |
If
|
you can sleep without the aid of drugs, | |
If
|
you can say honestly that deep in your heart you have no prejudice against creed, color, religion, or politics, | |
Then
|
my friend, you are almost as good as your dog! |
