Meryl Gordon Quotes

Discipline
I Am Old And I Have Had
more Than My Share Of Good And Bad.
I've Had Love And Sorrow, Seen Sudden Death
and Been Left Alone And Of Love Bereft.
I Thought I Would Never Love Again
and I Thought My Life Was Grief And Pain.
The Edge Between Life And Death Was Thin,
but Then I Discovered Discipline.
I Learned To Smile When I Felt Sad,
I Learned To Take The Good And The Bad,
I Learned To Care A Great Deal More
for The World About Me Than Before.
I Began To Forget The "Me" And "I"
and Joined In Life As It Rolled By:
this May Not Mean Sheer Ecstasy
but Is Better By Far Than "I" And "Me.
