Self-Advice is Always Wise

Efforts that you take,

Will surely get a reward,

Happiness if you make,

Praise will come from God,

If you heal the World's ache,

Heaven will give safeguard.

Losing is never a shame,

Musing is part of life-game,

Choosing hope brings fame.

When discouragement is given,

Accept it without irritation,

Toward gloom if you are driven,

Give not to worry invitation,

Even when you go to heaven,

Let not pride give intoxication!
