A few thoughts from Lincoln's Challenge graduates...

Have you loved?

Have you loved, have you lost? Have you cared and been crossed? Do you know yourself, or shall you find? Do you play by the rules, or get excited by the crime? Do you share? Do you give? Do you beg or do you lend? Do you keep or throw away? Were you born in September or in May? Do you see or are you blind? Do you have a watch or no sense of time? The perfect match, are you looking for? Did you not turn on the light when you opened the door? Did you run or did you walk? Have you seen the love or was it thought? Did she care? Did she really? Did you trust or go by gut feeling? Have you believed or have you never? There’s been 3 or 4 to call you clever? Have you walked on water or on land? Have you given a helping hand? Did you see it, before it came? Or did it fall out of the sky, as if it was rain? Have you hurt, have you pained? Have you struggled have you blamed? Do you feel regret, or ashamed? Have you been honest, have you lied? To give to who you love is to truly find? Is there happiness that never leaves? Or is it hate all that you can conceive? Can you think or barely read? Have mastered, have you conquered, or do you bleed? Is there hope, is their truth? God is with us that is our proof? Can you hear what is told? Or must you find out yourself, and yourself mold?

So, what happened to respect?
