"If" .... Timeless Fatherly Advice

from Worth Repeating Hosted by Todd J. Williams

Kipling's "If" was an often memorized poem that is not heard of much today. It is considered an example of Victorian Stoicism. It is dated and paternalistic. But both my son and my daughter memorized it when they were kids and discussed its expressed ideas. It served them well. The poem is brief, proverbial, and power-packed, outing the virtues of manhood and maturity. It is worth repeating.
