Selective Memory

Forget the praise that falls on you,
The moment you have won it.

Forget the slander that you hear,
Before you can repeat it;

Forget each slight, each spite, each sneer,
Wherever you may meet it.

Remember every kindness done
To you, whate'er its measure;

Remember every promise made,
And keep it to the letter;

Remember those who lend you aid,
And be a grateful debtor.

Remember good, remember truth,
Remember heaven's above you,
And you will find through age and youth,
True joy and hearts to love you!
