00:00One's attitude in life can make all the difference.
00:03That's why I wrote this poem one day.
00:06Two friends called this afternoon.
00:09One brought sunshine, the other gloom.
00:12They followed different roads in life, one seeking beauty, the other strife.
00:17One faced worries that came every day, one turned tail and ran away.
00:22He dodged into the shadows. I heard him shout,
00:25I'm caught in the thorns! Come help me out!
00:28I ran to his rescue as he was tattered and torn.
00:31His friend came running. I heard him shout,
00:33Give me a horn and I'll blow you out!
00:36I believed he could do it. I knew who it came.
00:39He gave a great blow on that horn and out of the thorns that man came.
00:43Oh boy, was he mad. This is exactly what he said.
00:46When you blow me out with that horn, your breath was bad.
00:51Yeah, I suppose for some people,
00:55no matter what they get, it's good enough for them.
00:58What is all that gripe and gif'em, I ask you?
01:01You know, one day I invented a smokeless gunpowder
01:05and blew up my powder house doing it.
01:08Boom! Just like that.
01:09And I blown up my...
01:12blown off my eyebrows and killed my favorite dog.
01:14But was that any reason to have a bad attitude?
01:17No, no.
01:18No, it was a learning experience.
01:20Yeah, that's the way I looked at it.
