To be good is a technique.

Man’s business in the world is to exist;

To be good is also a technique worth.

Man’s caution in his action is safety;

To be nice is a technique well suited.

Man’s purpose in life is to have a mate;

To be kind is a technique well employed.

To be good is no more a sacrifice,

But a means adopted to stay afloat.

The rose has developed a way to thrive,

Other than the one pursued by the cactus.
