Is There A Better Teacher?

Is there a teacher greater than life

And the people around you...

Every day of our lives we learn 

Each one gives us a new lesson...

Some with their care and affection.

Some with their deceit and deception.

Some with their indifference...

Some with their sweet reverence.

Some will be there for you always.

And some in need will not show their face

Some will stab you in your back.

While some will shield you from any attack.

Some will walk with you come what may.

And some will see a chance and run away.
