Janel's Place

When you go to bed early,
But you cannot sleep,
When you think America will end,
Because politicians are weak,
When love looks so stupid,
Movies are so lame,
When those who seem good,
Are just actors in a game...

Look around and laugh at yourself,
You're acting just like them!
Pulling on your serious face,
Trying to be important.
Behold the lap of purring cat,
Behold Orion's belt,
The universe is a little big,
For grad students to worry about.

Get up in the morning and do your thing,
Smile and wave at the others,
Like a bunch of little ants wearing serious pants,
Say your prayers, work hard, and enjoy the peanutbutter.



And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

Ecclesiastes 12:12-14
