Quote And Grow Rich - “The Man In The Glass”
January 14, 2006
Todays ‘Quote and Grow Rich’ from Dale Wimborw 8-95-1954 is priceless - yet so powerful and it will have you digging for your inner self.
“When you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day,
Just go to a mirror and look at yourself,
And see what that man has to say.
For it isn’t your father or mother or wife,
Who judgment upon you must pass;
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one starring back from the glass.
He’s the fellow to please, never mind all the rest.
For he’s with you clear up to the end,
And you’ve passed the most dangerous, difficult test
If the man in the glass is your friend.
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years.
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be the heartaches and tears
If you’ve cheated the man in the glass.”
I urge you to go straight to the nearest mirror, check the reflection and tell me what you see looking back at you. DO NOT cheat yourself here.
Quote and grow rich - because YOU deserve it!
Warmly

The poem, The Man in the Glass, was written by David Elton, who was the mayor of Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. Thanks for having it available. At one time, I had a booklet of all his poems. I understand that his great grandson by the same name has a website.
