Let no one get in your way. Move on. Never stop
Until you fulfill all your wishes and reach the top.
You are only at your very beginning, but you go on. You don’t stop.
“A thousand mile journey”, says Lao Tzu, “begins with a single step.”
What does interest you in him are not his beliefs, but the way he acts.
Neither does his talk interest you. What you want from him are facts.
You wouldn't let yourselves get stuck, blocked.
You go ahead and open the door, if it is locked.
No matter what the hardship you go through, your will stays unbroken.
So will your trust, confidence and faith in yourselves remain unshaken.
You are a sensible human being, not surely to be treated like an immature adolescent.
"No one”, says Eleanor Roosevelt, “can make you feel inferior without your consent."
Act, do what's to be done with or without his consent
Until you get all your dues in full, a hundred per cent.
Do not take unnecessary risks, but "live dangerously.”* Don't accept an easy life,
doing little chores: cooking, cleaning, shopping and by merely being a housewife.
You certainly do not seek only your comfort,
having everything without making any effort.
He does not realize that you are as sensitive as he is. That shows
That he never puts himself in your or in any other person's shoes.
Money isn’t everything. Even if you haven’t got a cent,
You sure are great, intelligent, sensible, honest, decent.
You take delight in doing your job, not only for the money you are earning,
But for your contribution to the human welfare and the skill you're learning.
You are being just like a bee, which spends all its time to make honey,
Without expecting to be thanked for its deed or get out of it any money.
Your primary concern is to live with everyone in harmony.
That for sure is more important than having lots of money.
