If you have no guide,
You will learn nothing.

It may be,
A good teacher,
A good associate,
A good book,
Or may be
A good line,
By nurturing, enriching,
Learning and behaving;
By following and living with good intentions,
You live a good livelihood,
and
Cultivate good habits.

Good vibes and a comfortable environment will follow,
But remember, you are nobody without it!

Just as
A bird can’t fly high without its wings,
Just as
An ox cannot reach home safely without its master,They help us and shape our lives;
It helps us go from a nobody to somebody.

So, don’t forget,
Always remember,
Who shaped you?
Who held you up?
Who nurtured you?

Always be grateful for whatever you have,
If you are grateful for who you are now,
You are the righteous one,
You are somebody,
and
You are great,
If you had a grateful heart.
