If: (A Father's Advice to His Son) by Rudyard Kipling If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise If you can dream - and not make dreams your master; If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the will which says to them: 'Hold on!' If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! ~Rudyard Kipling ( Art Credit: Jill Poyerd ) (Book: Poetry Collection of Rudyard Kipling https://amzn.to/42TFtBj) #ad #motivation #literature #Classic #poetry #poetrylovers #booklovers

Lets have some fun! Did you know today is Random Acts of Poetry Day? In winter’s chill, when the world turns white, Polarmatic Oy rises, a beacon of light. With warmth that flows through concrete's embrace, Transforming the frost, setting dreams into place. Gentle and steady, the heat softly spreads, Cradling the mix as it quietly treads. No cracks, no flaws, just a solid foundation, Crafting resilience with every vibration. Curing with purpose, it nurtures each part, A symphony built from the warmth of the heart. Efficiency sings, as energy saves, Creating the structures that time gently paves. So here’s to the process, both modern and true, Where science meets artistry, visions break through. With Polarmatic Oy’s touch, we conquer the freeze, Building our futures with strength and with ease. If I can turn Polarmatic Oy and concrete into a poem, imagine what I can do for your mix! Contact us for your customized quote. Don't worry it will be straight to the point no poetry ?? #letstalkconcrete
