+> Life is an incredible thing to cherish
+> all the way until we perish. <br>
+>
+> There are ups and downs every here and there, <br>
+> and it's all determined by Mind if we choose to care.
+>
+> If ever there were a thing to do: <br>
+> let your expectations go; <br>
+> don't take things personally; <br>
+> and learn to be best friends -- with You.
