The Camel of Redemption

If a mere straw can break a camels back, Why put straw on him to begin with? It has to be done to go forward? Never go back, make your own way, Use that straw to make hay. Then and only then will you succeed. When your mother gave birth to you, You went forward into this world, If you tried to go back, You would kill your mother. When something is done, It is final. Choose your words wisely, For once said, they are forever. Find a strong camel to carry you? If you add that mere straw, You will be walking. So be careful not to over load, What your camel cannot carry. A task can only be accomplished, If it is done the proper way. Now let me go operate on my brain?
