"If you can start the day without caffeine,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food every day
and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved
ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can overlook 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!" ~ Anonymous
