Good Example
I’d rather see a lesson, than to hear one any day,
I’d rather you’d walk with me, than to merely show the way.
The eye’s a better teacher, and more willing than the ear,
And counsel is confusing, but examples always clear.
The best of all the teachers, are the ones who live the creed,
To see good put into action, is what everybody needs.
I soon can learn to do it, if you let me see it done,
I can see your hand in action, but your tongue too fast may run.
And the counsel you are giving, may be very fine and true,
But I’d rather get my lesson, by observing what you do.
Just a Thought
“Until you make peace with who you are, you will never be content with what you have”
