When you get what you want in your struggle for yourself and the world makes you king for the day, just go to a mirror and look at yourself and see what that man has to say. For it is'nt your father or mother or friends whose judgment upon you must pass. The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life is the one starring back from the glass. Some people might think your a straight-shootin chum and call you a wonderful guy. But the man in the glass says your only a bum if you can't look him straight in the eye. He's the fellow to please, never mind all the rest for he's with you clear to the end and you've passed your most dangerous test if the man in the glass is your friend. You may fool the whole world down the pathway of life and get pats on the back as you pass. But your final reward will be heartache and tears if you've cheated the man in the glass.
