Farewell to you and the youth I have spent with you ' Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters ot Life's longing for it- Self. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts, For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek them not to make them like you. For lite goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. Kahlil Gibran The Class of 1972 . '7mY't3 MW WWW .

There are golden apples to be picked and green hills to climb and meadows to run when you're young There are roaring rivers to be crossed and bridges to build and wild oats to sow as you grow. But later on the other side of time the apples no longer taste sweet. Bridges tall down. Meadows turn brown as life falls apart in a little room on Stanyan Street. g - Rod McKuen: Stanyan Street student life
