pl read visions if as an apology to rudy and modern if what it should be and is wait a moment pl IF If you can hold your own when, others are outgrown, And they lose their minds and upon you thrust, If only you can confide in your friends, when others don't, But let others have their way they want, If you are still unperturbed, by the harm they cause, Or being denied your right, you do not theirs steal, And still do not stand to stare, nor look too unconcerned, If you can still think of more fortunate, yet not envy those, If you can still be calm and collected, and not let others irk, If you can still let grief and happiness be an equal partner And treat the two ironies, just the way one should, If you can still share the fruits of your efforts Taken away by others, who claim it as their own achievement? Or still better see them earn fame and name at your cost, And you can still face the world squarely and boldly. If If you can just forget the wrath and damage done, And with a smile give them your clap and bravo, And let each one of your foes, line up ahead of you And never utter a sound of pain and sorrow. If you can still hold your cool, for long there after To still be happy to bestow them praise And feel not a bit of disgust towards malicious humanity Expertly pass the message to them that you know, everything, If you are the coolest one around in good company Only you are yourself, amongst poor and the elite alike, If no one is your enemy nor friend and both have a place. If all you know can look upon you, with equal measure, If you are always your normal self at all times, With a million jobs well done, taken as theirs You are the sun of Wisdom, my progeny; all is your earning, And what is most.....you are the only ''Human Being''.
