I Love the Bobbie Goodmans of Small Towns

Bobbie Goodman, a spry lady walked up to me after my talk in Greenup, IL and told me, “I really liked your Can Do Poem, but I’d like for you to listen to the one I use to guide me.”

“Be not dismayed
Not be surprised
If what you do
Is criticized.

Mistakes are made
We can’t deny
But only made
By those who try”

I just love talking in small towns like Greenup and meeting people like Bobbie Goodman. It makes my day, every day!
