The Secrets Of Success In Thailand

Advice to my Son

by J. Peter Meinke

The trick is, to live your days

as if each one may be your last

(for they go fast, and young men lose their lives

in strange and unimaginable ways)

but at the same time, plan long range

(for they go slow; if you survive

the shattered windshield and the bursting shell

you will arrive

at our approximation here below

of heaven or hel_l).

To be specific, between the peony and the rose

plant squash and spinach, turnips and tomatoes;

beauty is nectar

and nectar, in the desert, saves –

but the stomach craves stronger sustenance

than the honied vine.

Therefore, marry a pretty girl

after seeing her mother;

show your soul to one man,

work with another;

and always serve bread with your wine.

But, son,

Always serve wine.

I think there is enough in here to form the basis of a happy and long existance here in LOS.

Can you find any other good advice from our elders?
