    life is not unfair
    it is what you make of it
    not what it makes you

    Thanks. My Grandma said how much she likes Haiku, so I thought I would give one a try.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
