Mother's & Father's Day
Parents have sacrificed greatly in these days
In sacrificing self for the betterment of the children
Many parents have sacrificed their children in providing for them
Childhood is for education appreciation, respect, admiration, concentration
We grow by these, we learn by these and we pattern our lives after these and other
Forms of self fulfillment, development and betterment
In an effort to make the lives of our progeny better...
We have dipped them further into the well of lost esteem
Work, determination, organization, respect, for any, love, honor, chivalry,
Charity, service, humility, and faith these are the builders and makers of a better life
We must give them what lets them succeed, not
Shelter them until they can only believe and see what
We place upon them as reality
Let them be...by showing them true charity
Sacrifice by education, example and provisions but only to the point of giving
Taking begins when you deprive them from the chance to grow and learn
Sweat, succeed, fulfill, complete, fail, prevail, and earn
What they have the right and need to build their
Self-esteem.
