Just When You Thought That You Already

Now Everybody Has Some Secret Goals In Life.

Public Lives Are Lived Out On The Job And In The Marketplace, Where Certain Rules, Conventions, Laws, And Social Customs Keep Most Of Us In Line. Private Lives Are Lived Out In The Presence Of Family, Friends, And Neighbors Who Must Be Considered And Respected Even Though The Rules And Proscriptions Are Looser Than What's Allowed In Public. But In Our Secret Lives, Inside Our Own Heads, Almost Anything Goes.

I Am A Fragment Of A Mirror Whose Whole Design And Shape I Do Not Know. Nevertheless, With What I Have - I Can Reflect Light Into The Dark Places Of This World - Into The Black Places In The Hearts Of Men - And Change Somethings In Some People. Perhaps Others May See And Do Likewise. This Is What I Am About. This Is The Meaning Of My Life.

These Are The Things I Learned: Share Everything, Play Fair. Don't Hit People. Put Things Back Where You Found Them. Clean Up Your Own Mess. Don't Take Things That Aren't Yours. Say You're Sorry When You Hurt Somebody. Wash Your Hands Before You Eat. Warm Cookies And Cold Milk Are Good For You. Live A Balanced Life. Learn Some And Think Some And Draw Some And Paint And Sing And Dance And Play And Work Some Every Day. Take A Nap Every Afternoon, And, When You Go Out Into The World, Watch For Traffic, Hold Hands, And Stick Together.

We Could Learn A Lot From Crayons; Some Are Sharp, Some Are Pretty, Some Are Dull, While Others Bright, Some Have Weird Names, But They All Have Learned To Live Together In The Same Box.
