as i told you <br />it is the survival of the fittest <br />but there is no one to blame <br />for your exclusion <br /> <br />there is also luck <br />the sister of chance <br /> <br />you prayed but it <br />was not heard <br />heaven is too far <br />perhaps it has closed <br />its ears <br />to your pleas <br /> <br />there are no unheard prayers <br />there are only those which cannot be granted <br />because they are not <br />good for you <br />the gods know better <br />we are weaker <br /> <br /> <br />there are seasons <br />some flowers do not bloom for this month <br />they wait <br />others compromise only <br />on some years <br />not all trees bear fruit in November <br />there is such word <br />as waiting <br /> <br />do not give up <br />try again <br />persist and be patient <br />soon your time shall come <br />it is not a lie....<br /><br />RIC S.
