    I may be a fool
    But let me learn
    To be disciplined
    And get help
    By various time-saving
    Tools

    I may not be smart
    But let me wake early
    Do chores and errands
    And get a strong
    Early start

    I may not be pretty
    But let me brush my hair
    And wash my face
    Let me be conscious
    Of my trim, trim waist

    I may not be rich
    But let me see latest sales
    Let me find promotions
    And let me be the queen
    Of learning how to haggle
    So I am never considered
    The slowest of snails

    I may not be a good talker
    But let me listen
    And observe
    Let met learn to understand
    The emotion of others
    So I will know how to
    Twist and turn

    I may not know how to fly
    But let God catch me
    If I may be betrayed
    By loved ones who
    Feel my heart they
    Can trample and slay

    I liked above lines.They show your trust towards god and keep your Sprits up, Sui. Of course that is one of my favorite Buddha quotes.

    In God we must always trust
    It may be hard
    It may seem strange
    But if we cannot trust our
    Inner light
    We shall certainly
    Become deranged
