Accountability

Assume you have to ask questions and you
Can mess up. You	
Can apologize and make it up by 
Offering to help
Understand a problem and 
Never pretend to empathize. Just
Treat people right

Ask to hear both sides of a story
Before making one evil, another inheriting all glory
Illustrate what you preach
Learn why things work
Indecisiveness needs to stop, make up your mind
Trials and tribulations will test your character,  
Yield happiness and calm, life will be a delight.

Such a smooth flowing way to do an acrostic. I could have read many more paragraphs of your wonderful wisdom. Luck on your manuscript.

Thanks for reading it:) I'm putting a manuscript together. Worth a shot. What's the worst that could happen. They say "no". Risk scale-none
