    Do Not Worry
    22 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. 23 For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24 Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds!”


    ―Luke 12:22-24 (NIV)

    Good fortune? The fact is
    The more that you practise,
    The harder you sweat,
    The luckier you get.

    Ideas? We've had'em
    Since Eve deceived Adam,
    But take it from me
    Execution's the key.

    The money? Just pester
    A likely Investor.
    To get what you need
    You toady to greed.

    The talent? Go sign it.
    But first, wine and dine it.
    It's tedious work
    With a talented jerk.

    Good timing? To win it
    You gotta be in it.
    Just never be late
    To quit or cut bait.

    Expansion? It's vanity!
    Profit is sanity.
    Overhead begs
    To walk on two legs.

    The first step? Just do it
    And bluff your way through it.
    Remember to duck!
    God speed...

    and Good Luck!
