The first time when I saw her being meek that she might attain height.
The second time when I saw her limping before the crippled.

The fourth time when she committed a wrong, and comforted herself that others also commit wrong.
The fifth time when she forbode for weakness, and attributed her patience to strength.

And the seventh time when she sang a song of praise, and deemed it a virtue. — Kahlil Gibran
