Part 2: The Hindsight and lessons learned I was on crutches for a month, The diagnosis of hyperextended ligaments was not true, I had knee surgery to get back hopping in a few weeks. The lesson I learned, is never show off, know your limits, Fun can await on some other day, There was human temptation at that age, To impress the girls, maybe make a girlfriend, One girl would come once in a while, Bring food and consolation for my well-being, She gradually disappeared; I was back to work. Now in hindsight, it was a great lesson learned, People like the winners, not the losers, Exceed in your effort, show your talent where you are good, Research is hard work, like poets writing poems, With only a few readers and good comments, I found solace in my effort and kept myself going in life. Pretend not to be master of all the knowledge needed, Talk to the juniors and experts, if help is required, Assuming that you can do it all on your own, It is inviting trouble to a bright future.
