If you can’t be a pine on the top of the hill

be a shrub in the valley.

But be the best little shrub, by the side of the path.

Be a bush if you can’t be a tree.

We all can’t be captains, there’s got to be crew.

there is something for all of us here.

There is big work to do and there is lesser work to do.

and the task we must do is near.

If you can’t be a highway, then just be a trail.

if you can’t be a sun then be a star.

It isn’t in size that you win or fail.

Be the best of whatever you are.

Ends
