This I think as I go my way: <br />What can matter the words I say, <br />And what can matter the false or true <br />Of any deed I am moved to do? <br /> <br />This I think as I go along: <br />What can matter my right or wrong? <br />Whichever path I may choose to take, <br />What possible difference can it make? <br /> <br />This I think as I go to town: <br />What can matter my smile or frown? <br />Can any one's destiny altered be <br />For better or worse because of me? <br /> <br />And something whispers; <br />'Another may be sadly deceived <br />By the words you say. <br />And another, believing and trusting you, <br />May be led astray by the things you do.' <br /> <br />'For much that never you'll see or know <br />Will mark your days as you come and go. <br />And in countless lives that you'll never learn <br />The best and the worst of you will return.'<br /><br />Edgar Albert Guest<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/influence-19/
