Be The Best of Whatever You Are
by Douglas Malloch
If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill
Be a scrub in the valley--but be
The best little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush if you can't be a tree.
If you can't be a bush be a bit of the grass,
And some highway some happier make;
If you can't be a muskie then just be a bass--
But the liveliest bass in the lake!
We can't all be captains, we've got to be crew,
There's something for all of us here.
There's big work to do and there's lesser to do,
And the task we must do is the near.
If you can't be a highway then just be a trail,
If you can't be the sun be a star;
It isn't by size that you win or you fail--
Be the best of whatever you are!

to be the best VS to be myself
Now,all of us living in a big world .Everyday, we have to meet lots of options ,if we don't care we will lose ourself,right?
For example , in students' life ,study is the most important thing right? And everybody want to be the first .And think the number one is the best.So you will lose yourself ,to do everybody does.So you will Have ignored one's own value .Maybe some years later,you will find that you are not success and you know that is because of you lose yourself.
I think everybody knows James,he is one of the most famous super star in NBA Even the world,right? But is there anybody knows how his growing history?Maybe none. Now,I will tell you:When he was a student, everyone in his class laughed at his basketball skill. One day, James asked a coach to teach him basketball. However, the coach answered, “You can’t play basketball well because of your skill.” But James never gave up, he still kept practicing basketball. Finally, he came into the NBA and led Cavaliers get the great success. James is truly being himself.
In my opinion,be yourself is more important than to be the best. to be ourselves ,we can be help ourself to know more things that about life and the world.Maybe to be the best can make you success,but it's always not your way.You'll found not to be pound of it sometimes.
So,try to be yourself and you can get a better life.
