"The journey is the reward."
- Steve Jobs
Come, tell me what's on your mind,
and I'll hear you with my heart.
Take the time to share with me
all that you know, and I'll share
with you both laughter and sorrow.
Forgive me when I forget
to thank you for your hard work.
Please guide me towards wisdom and
before you know it, you'll see
how all the sudden we've grown.
Where we once stood all alone,
we now stand by each other.
As friends, the bond strengthens us
differences seems to waste away
as we now become a family.
