To live as gently as I can;
To be, no matter where, a man;
To take what comes of good or ill
And cling to faith and honor still;
To do my best, and let that stand
The record of my brain and hand;
And then, should failure come to me,
Still work and hope for victory.
To have no secret place wherein
I stoop unseen to shame or sin;
To be the same when I'm alone
And when my every deed is known;
To live undaunted, unafraid
Of any step that I have made;
To be without pretense or shame
Exactly what men think I am.
To leave some simple mark behind
To keep my having lived in mind;
If enmity to aught I show.
To be an honest, generous foe,
To play my little part, nor whine
That greater honors are not mine.
This, I believe, is all I need
For my philosophy and creed.
It is a pleasure to be your friend, Heloiza! You are a wonderful gift to this community and I honor you and your contributions!
Blessings, love and peace,
AW
Happy 2010 Heloiza! Wishing you the best in all that you experience. I did take a color photography course this past fall and am more enthused about my new hobby. How is Brasil?

Have not heard from you lately, how have you been?
Congratulations to your country securing the Olympic bid for 2016. God Willing, I will make it there with my son to see a good part of it....
Best, Mike
