And with fresh days let ali begin anew.
Why longer amid shriveled leaf drifts
tread
When buds are swelling. i.UN or sheaths

Seen through the vista Of the vanished
years
How trivial seem the struggle and the

How vain past feuds when reconciling

How few mean half the bitterness they
speak!
Words more than feelings keep us still
apart.
And in the heat of passion and of pique
The tongue is far more cruel than the
heart.
Since love alone makes it worth while TO
live.
Let all be now forgiven and forgive.

Tact means thinking about others.
1t means considering what others will
think instead of considering only what

ing only for ourselves Real tact is
unselfishness in action. and that is why
it gains so much and wins so many
