Son, always remember

You’re an apostle, yours is to deliver;

Learn to give before you receive.

Teach yourself to be open and sincere;

Honesty is the best way to disarm the guarded.

Be unassuming and compassionate;

Kindness breaks down even the most stubborn adversary.

Get rid of greed and selfishness;

Learn to judge your moves by the effects they have on others.

Discover and learn from others;

Nevertheless, make your own decisions.

Remember, people may tend to agree with you politely;

Yet deep inside, they resent you.

You need two things to survive in this skill;

Your word and your specialty.

Be a man of your word;

Stand for what you believe in.

Choose your battles intelligently;

Make your decision wisely.

At times you’ll have more to be angry about;

Keeping it to yourself will do you more harm than good.

Normal people reach out to friends and family;

That door is always open.

Be true to yourself and your networks;

But know that the truth is generally seen, not heard.

Actions may speak louder than words;

But the most powerful persuasion goes beyond your actions

EVE!

 

Why didn’t you listen?

The message was clear

The day you eat of it you’ll be cursed

**

If only you knew

That the sprite is a liar

And he meant you or any of us no good

**

Would you had looked around

Then maybe you would have noticed

The garden was full of other trees and they bore fruits
