Langston Hughes'
Mother to Son

In this poem, Hughes writes about a mother speaking to her son about life's experiences. He uses the metaphor of a crystal stair.
_______________________________________________
____

Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor --
Bare.
But all the time
I'se been a-climbin' on,
And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.
So boy, don't you turn back.
Don't you set down on the steps
'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.
Don't you fall now --
For I'se still goin', honey,
I'se still climbin',
And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

ive had an extra florescent light -inside the protective cardboard- sitting on top of my aquarium. ... it's covering 2 of 3 openings to the aquarium.... i first noticed them 5 or 6 days ago searching for food, and once it was found- the excess fish food- over a period of a 2 days, they colonized the tube's cardboard.
i need to access the other two openings, but i dont want to really disturb the ants. their stay is welcomed--> they'll clean up all of the fish food and all........ so.................................. how can i move the tube without them freaking out and leaving?
if i DO move the tube, set it on the floor, and then put it back 2 hours later, will they re-situate themselves and continue their old routine, or will they abandon the tube? what should i do? i NEED to use the 2 other doors!

I haven't talked to a girl I missed for 11 months. We were only friends for four months but I really liked her and eventually fell in love with her. Last week I tried to talk to her for the 1st and last time, for if she still didn't want to talk to me anymore. She didn't as she completely ignored me. After the day I tried to talk to her I never said another word to her. Five days later-yesterday-a teacher pulled me out of class and took me to an administrator's office, explaining that the girl went to her about me that day and told me to please leave her alone. She told me the girl's mom called the school about me. The teacher said "It's not that she doesn't like you, it's that she doesn't like you in that way." I resolved to move on from her completely and not say anything to her today, which is her 17th birthday. I'm older by about 2 months. The way the teacher talked to me makes it seem like the girl was trying to make me out into a harassing stalker by omitting how many times I actually tried to talk to her. The teacher didn't know until I told her I only tried to talk to her once in almost a year. Whenever we have the same lunch I'm always with a friend (guy) in a line and she always goes with a girlfriend in the next line and always stands to where she's facing me. I used to catch her looking at me. I started getting smarter a while ago and asking my friend to look for me and he would say she's looking right at me when I'm not looking at her. On today, her birthday, we had the same lunch and she STILL does the same thing, even though yesterday she told the teacher on me, she still stood where she was facing me and snuck looks in my direction when I wasn't looking. I kept my back to her the whole time. I feel bad about not saying anything to her and not telling her happy birthday today. I had to remind one of her friends I made friends with that today was her birthday. She said she heard what happened and she thinks I was wrong for trying to talk to the girl.

I have been contiplating tracking down my first love, He has been the first thing and the last thing I think about each day. When we broke up, I was a stupid nieve kid, and I have been regreting it everyday for the last 13 years. I can't take it anymore. I love him and I need him to know it, even if he doesn't take me back. So my question is....would u go for it, or let sleeping dogs lay?

When we go out to dinner as a family, my son-in-law and husband are the only ones who put money pay. If we take a family vacation, it's always on our credit card. What can we do to get him to pay his share? I know it my fault for paying his way all these years but now I'm really tired of it and need something to change.
