Ideals


Remember that ideals

are like stars up in the sky,

You can never really reach them,

hanging in the heavens high....

But like the mighty mariner

who sailed the storm-tossed sea,

And used the stars to chart his course

with skill and certainty,

You too can chart your course in life

with high ideals and love,

For high ideals are like the stars

that light the sky above....

You cannot ever reach them,

but lift your heart up high

And your life will be as shining

as the stars up in the sky.

[ Helen Stiener Rice -- from Aiken Drum ]
