Just words

I remembered my grandpa telling me once upon a time to never let the words of another man bring you to an anger. He told me life is short, lean to be quick to listen, and slow to speak. Never give up on life, just give up the material things that life has to offer. Balance is the key, too much of any one thing will be bad for anyone who will partake of. As I think back about a man that I never met, grandpaw was everything I wished he would be. Thanks to mom,
my grandpa gave me his words!
