1 Because I was born into poverty I learnt some of life's most valuable lessons 2 Because I don't over-rate my skills I suffer from few disappointments 3 Because I could not flatter nor compromise some people kept away from me 4 Because I recognise the ways of the world I am not easily fazed 5 Because I know life is too short I don't fritter time away in idle indulgence

BECAUSE ( Collection 10*)
1 Because I was born into poverty I learnt some of life's most valuable lessons 2 Because I don't over-rate my skills I suffer from few disappointments 3 Because I could not flatter nor compromise some people kept away from me 4 Because I recognise the ways of the world I am not easily fazed 5 Because I know life is too short I don't fritter time away in idle indulgence
* taking a pause after this--moving to other themes
