Lesson 9 - Do It for Yourself
I have always struggled with this idea
Since it seemed self-centered.
But I have to admit that when Raymond said it,
There was a ring of truth.
“I had a woman,” he said,
“Down in Springfield.
She was gorgeous
And she wanted me to stay.
But I found myself saying ‘I’ve got to go.’
I’ve got to do this thing!
Though I hated to leave.”
And I think he meant that he had to find a home.
“You’ve got to do it for yourself,” he said,
“Before you can do it for another.”
And I think that he was right.
