Maintaining head and heart balance, live in vibrant nonchalance Save unconditional love’s sublime appeal nothing else is real Be honest, truthful, gentle and just and in God always trust Be equal in both pleasure and pain, in both sunshine and rain Only when both mind and body are healthy, are we truly wealthy Be humble in victory and graceful in defeat, joyous and upbeat At the end of each day, take out some time in silence to pray Be alert and awake, playfully learning from each mistake We will meet people, both kind and toxic, discern using logic Free from regrets of what could have been, retain soul’s sheen Engage zestfully in both work and play, joyous day after day Challenges in life will appear; face everything without fear 08-February-2023 The 12 Things You'd Teach Your Child Poetry Contest Sponsor: Matt Caliri

Congrats on 3rd place out of 35th! My favorite line: "vibrant nonchalance!" That earned you spot alone.
