Fulfilment
To fulfil the dreams of one's youth;
that is the best that can happen to a man.
No worldly success can take the place of that.
~Willa Cather~
Resiliency
Youth has the resilience to absorb disaster
and weave it into the pattern of it's life,
no matter how anguishing the thorn
that penetrates its flesh.
~Sholem Asch~
Let me grow lovely
Let me gro lovely, growing old-
So many fine things to do:
Laces and ivory, and gold,
And silks need not be new;
And there is healing in old trees,
Old streets glamour hold;
Why not I, as well as these,
grow lovely, growing old?
