Remember when you were young,
how you were never really cool?
Maybe you were,
an underachiever in school.
Perhaps you lived on low-income,
and you did not have parents,
to teach you right from wrong.
\'You will wind up in jail.
You will never make it.
You are to dumb\',
said not just the teachers and your peers,
but everyone.
Yet, now you are grown.
You have a beautiful family,
and a beautiful home.
Maybe no one deserves it,
more than you.
Maybe no one deserves to boast,
more than you.
Still, you remember,
what you went through.
Over the years you learned humility,
compassion,
and sympathy too.
Now, you overhear your child,
say something mean,
and you sit him down and say,
\"Son, you must do unto others,
as you would have them,
do unto you\".
