Be soft.
Do not let the world
make you hard.

Do not let pain make
you hate.

Do not let the bitterness
steal your sweetness.

Take pride that even though
the rest of the world may
disagree, you still believe
it to be a beautiful place.

-Kurt Vonnegut

Reflection

Sometimes it's a tough World out there which tends to
drain us or make us want to harden our hearts to protect
ourselves. It takes a very strong person to stay soft.
