Our B-day

If you are a dreamer, come in,
If you are a dreamer,
a wisher, a liar,
A hop-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer..
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in! Come in!

-Shel Silverstein
Where the Sidewalk Ends

...

Watch your thoughts;
they become words.
Watch your words;
they become actions.
Watch your actions;
they become habits.
Watch your habits;
they become character.
Watch your character;
it becomes your destiny.


— Lao-Tze
