Listen To The Mustn'ts

Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child,

Listen to the DON'TS

Listen to the SHOULDN'TS

The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS

Listen to the NEVER HAVES

Then listen close to me--

Anything can happen, child,

ANYTHING can be.

--Shel Silverstein

This is one I read to my children quite often before they go to bed at night. It's something we should all take to heart and hold close when the night threatens to devour us whole.
