Be. . .prepared for the journey of life and where
it may take you.

Be. . .prepared for anything that may come your way
knowing that some will lose and some will win,
                                       but we will never be here again.

Be. . .creative and dynamic in your thinking and
doing and happy, because life is too short to
be anything else.

Be. . .strong when you are weak,
brave when you are scared, because you will
need it if you expect to survive.

Be. . .humble when you are victorious and happy
because life is over before you know it.

Be. . .thankful to be alive knowing that every minute
you have will never come again.

Be. . .the first to apologize, the first to be bravest
and the first to forgive and be the happiest.

Be. . .patient, everything is coming together.

Will it be easy?
               Nope.
Worth it?
              Absolutely.

Trust the process and do the best you can until
you know better and when you know better,
do better.                                                          ­   Jon York     2016
