Assiduous

When one does a setup,
What is the first thing one must do?

'Observe, study and plan.'

Okay.
But I would think...
The first thing one must do,
Is to remain true to onself.
Prepared to face any dilemma.
And then proceed.
Most times...
The setting up of something,
Takes years in the making.
And requires patience, discipline and diligence.

'That's why I said...
Observe, study and plan.'

With an application of assiduity.
Being one who is assiduous.

'We could have left the name calling out of this.
But if you want to stoop to those levels...
I can hang, you know? '

Study and plan 'before' you setup.
Comprehend with understand first!
Dissect and listen.
Then research.

Women's courage is rather different from men's. The fact that women have to bring up children and look after husbands makes them braver at facing long-term issues, such as illness. Men are more immediately courageous. Lots of people are brave in battle.

Etymology, n.:
Some early etymological scholars come up with derivations that were hard for the public to believe. The term "etymology" was formed from the Latin "etus" ("eaten"), the root "mal" ("bad"), and "logy" ("study of"). It meant "the study of things that are hard to swallow."

A Long Term Memory I Have

A Long Term memory I have
Holding tons of shocking stories
Inside my heart

A long term memory I have
The memories of poison and blood I have
Running inside me

A long term memory I have
The memories that holds
Some faces of blood eating
Monsters that lives near my heart

A long term memories
Of hate and hating
Myself

A black heart I have
Pumping poison into my body
Restlessly every time

All the happiness is sucked by
A blackhole of bad memories
All the love is vanished by
A tornado of hate and loneliness

All I have now is
Memories of

Be Strong And Courageous

Be Strong and Courageous
by Michael W. Smith & Deborah D. Smith
on Project (1982)
My servant, now your time has come
You have have a job to do
I have a people to be led
And a willing heart in you
So I give you strength and courage
And I'll hide you in my hand
For Joshua, you gotta live for your call
Take my people to their land
Chorus:
So be strong and courageous
So be strong and courageous
You know you gotta be strong and courageous
So be strong and courageous
Never should you feel my call
Just listen and obey
Discouragement need never fall
Stand on the words I say
You know I led your fathers here
And you know I'll lead you too
Inscribe my law into your soul
And nothing will touch you
Chorus
Repeat Chorus

We are aware that many national farm organizations are putting forth various plans to provide both short- and long-term relief to our nation's agricultural producers. While we believe long-term solutions are essential, the current situation demands a more immediate response.

The fact remains that the overwhelming majority of people who have become wealthy have become so thanks to work they found profoundly absorbing. The long term study of people who eventually became wealthy clearly reveals that their "luck" arose from accidental dedication they had to an arena they enjoyed.

Dare-Devils of the Sea

The Acrobatic ‘Man-Bird-Fish! '

Man flies in air wingless, ‘bird-like’!
Man swims in water like a fish;
Man acrobatics monkey-like;
Man does most things as per his wish!

Man dives from cliffs and rocks so high,
And floats a moment just swan-like,
Taking risks, unafraid to die,
Plunging head-down, into the sea!

Cliff-diving is a thrilling sport,
Courageous and perilous;
The daring ones make it their forte;
Now swimming pools look courteous!

In three seconds, they touch the sea;
The entry-splash looking, so neat
A spectacle, incredibly.
Nick Fluge dived down sixty-five feet!

You’ve got to train for days, weeks, years,
With risks disastrous, if you miss;
Tho’ Scuba’ equipment and gears
Protect some persons, from death’s kiss!
