It’s not arrogant to wow yourself every once in a while. It’s not arrogance, it’s just paying attention.

— Cole Arthur Riley.


3221 First Child
The first child marks a change to adulthood,
towards seriously trying to do good.
Onto family, your focus reduces,
and what your effort produces
goes rightfully to their support;
the rest of the world can wait their day in court.

3411 Seemingly Small Gifts
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are;
tomorrow and the world can wait for reinforcements.
Small things sometimes have more meaning by far
even if they don't produce future endorsements.
A kind word, a smile, seemingly small gifts
may go farther than rhetoric to heal our rifts
