According To Confucius
12 November, 2006
Author: Bipedalguy
If you would have your dream come true,
you must wake up, not stay in bed.
It’s clear that that’s the thing to do.
It’s even what Confucius said.
------- Author's Notes -------
One can't make a dream come true while still sleeping. "You must wake up" before doing anything about your dream. That seems logical enough. |

So true. Gets the point across in four lines. We won't get anything done just by lying there. We've got to pursue our dreams...and that means to get up and get out and do it...lol! Truly divine! Great work poet! |
| Bipedalguy (4.156.51.205) -- Saturday, November 18 2006, 02:31 am Thanks for your nice comment. Some of my Chinese friends say that "Simplicity is Beauty". It's my nature to persue simplicity. I'm not sure it's always beautiful, but I think I understand the philosophy expressed. |
