Melissa Northrup - Honor makes or breaks a Man

Honor makes or breaks a Man
Wandering in life,
Decisions made, Decisions kept
Will greater or lessen Strife

How must we determine Character?
We do with every Step
Made in life, Carefully
Watching for the next

Conclusion drawn by Experience
Farther down the path
Which you chose
For the common Benefit or harm

Step carefully, my Young Men,
For someday you will see
The Judgment you passed on life as it passed
Has made you who you will Be.
