“The things men did or felt they had to do.”
“The Things Mommy Taught
Oh, my child!
You are beautiful, without a doubt
Love the person you are
Look in the mirror with a smile
Seek after things that matter
Allow nothing to ruin your good heart
Shun anything wicked for you to hear
Listen, so you too can be heard
Choose to be of good influence
Invest in a better tomorrow
Become no one’s shadow
Learn not to be shallow
Lead so others can follow
Let go of what brings you sorrow
Know where to find joy
Even when I am gone
Remain strong
In the storm, do not get lost
Fix your eyes upon the Lord
Fill your mind with the Word of God
For in it are infinite wells of wisdom
Hold on to His promises
Pursue your purpose
Say a prayer
Make sure you prosper
Each day on this Earth
Remember the things Mommy taught”

“The things of your life arrived in their own time, like a train you had to catch. Sometimes this was easy, all you had to do was step onto it, the train was plush and comfortable and full of people smiling at you in a hush, and a conductor who punched your ticket and tousled your head with his big hand, saying, Ain’t you pretty, ain’t you the prettiest girl now, lucky lady taking a big train trip with your daddy, while you sank into the dreamy softness of your seat and sipped ginger ale from a can and watched the world float in magical silence past your window, the tall buildings of the city in the crisp autumn light and then the backs of the houses with laundry flapping and a crossing with gates where a boy was waving from his bicycle, and then the woods and fields and a single cow eating grass.......
.....Because sometimes it was one way, easy, and sometimes it was the other, not easy; the things of your life roared down to you and it was all you could do to grab hold and hang on. Your old life ended, and the train took you away to another...”

“The things people say of a man do not alter a man. He is what he is. Public opinion is of no value whatsoever. Even if people employ actual violence, they are not to be violent in turn. That would be to fall to the same low level. After all, even in prison, a man can be quite free. His soul can be free. His personality can be untroubled. He can be at peace. And, above all things, they are not to interfere with other people or judge them in any way. Personality is a very mysterious thing. A man cannot always be estimated by what he does. He may keep the law, and yet be worthless. He may break the law, and yet be fine. He may be bad, without ever doing anything bad. He may commit a sin against society, and yet realize through that sin his true perfection.”
