different from you.

Learn to like to work and enjoy the satisfaction of doing your job as well as it can be done.

Learn to like the songs of birds, the companionship of dogs.

Learn to like gardening, puttering around

on the roof and windows,

and the gentle fall of snow on a winter's day.

refuse to be controlled by the likes and dislikes of others.
