A Punchline Walking....

By veingo

For every failure there is a lesson.

For every negative there is a positive.

Just like how, for every joke there is a punchline..



You have to "collect" the good things,
even as the bad things "compile".



Like...



You can be treated badly, and still be a good person.

You can be called a lier, and still be honest.

You can have bad things happen, and still have a positive outlook.

You can have your children hate you, and still be a good father.



I want to tell my parents that I will keep learning from them, just as I should.


I want my children to know that I will keep teaching them, for as long as I can.



Because you'll never know who laughs last, unless you make it all the way to the end.






Even a punchline can keep walking on....
