2nd Thanksgiving Picture

Okay, so I admit I am very prejudiced. I want to have a picture of Frank posted now, because I don't want to wait. (Don't worry, everyone who was at the feast will have their pictures posted soon.)

Frank has always encouraged me to tell the truth and be stand strong in what I believe in; so I wrote a poem today of something he would say...just in my words. Frank speaks many truths, I just have the knack of writing it down in a way that sounds pretty and softens the blow of exactly what it is ~ the truth. Feel free to comment...and please tell the truth. :)

To Be Strong

To be strong doesn't mean,
To always look good;
It's doing what's right,
What we know we should.

It's not saving face,
Or trying to be cool;
Because we will make,
Of ourselves a great fool.

It takes great courage,
To truly be strong;
It means telling the truth,
Even when you're wrong.

It means standing up,
For what you believe in;
Because when you lie,
You commit a great sin.

And being free from lies,
Will give your heart a song;
Standing for what is right,
Is one way to be strong.
