Lovely Wishes
You can love me, but I must make me happy.
You can teach me, but I must do the learning.
You can guide me, but I must walk the path.
You can coach me, but I must win the game.
You can even promote me, but I must be successful.
You can even pity me, but I will still have to bear the sorrow. For the gift of love is not the food that feeds me; but the sunshine that nourishes what I must finally harvest for myself. So, if you love me, don't just sing me a song; teach me to sing, for when I am alone I will need the melody.
