I Wish I Were
Topic : Male, Man, Men- honest enough to admit all my shortcomings;
- brilliant enough to accept flattery without it making me arrogant;
- tall enough to tower above deceit;
- strong enough to treasure love;
- brave enough to welcome criticism;
- compassionate enough to understand human frailties;
- wise enough to recognize my mistakes;
- humble enough to appreciate greatness;
- staunch enough to stand by my friends;
- human enough to be thoughtful of my neighbor; and
- righteous enough to be devoted to the love of God.
