"The book is closed, the year is done, The pages full of tasks begun. A little joy, a little care, Along with dreams, are written there. This new day brings another year, Renewing hope, dispelling fear. And we may find before the end, A deep content, another friend."

Tarentum, Leonidas of | Action | 1 bookmarks

"The world isn't interested in the storms you encountered, but whether or not you brought in the ship."
