ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS
Be respectful in what you say, kind in what you do: do unto others as you would have them done to you.
Listen to understand, not to reply: with a little curiosity, your limit’s the sky.
Days will be long, sometimes you’ll be tired: to whom much is given, much is required.
You’re confident, you’re smart, you’re driven, although: those are just words, you’ll reap what you sow.
Lead by example, be generous, have fun: make those around you better, that’s how it’s done.
Life can be tough, sometimes you’ll want to stop, but when climbing a mountain, think of the view from the top!
