 BENDS ONLY, NOT THE END
Jimmy TeoPhilosopher, Motivator and Entrepreneur
 Life is always in the forward gear until the endAll problems are necessary bends;
 Without bitterness, sweetness has less contents
 Without stormy weather, the bright sunshine is just a blank.
Add 'b' to 'end', and we have 'bend'
 That 'curve or sharp' bend necessary to slow us
 To be safe & have adequate rest
 Or burn out & suffer before the 'end'.
Add 'f' to 'end' and we have 'fend'
 That mandatory personal self-effort
 To move against laziness & dependence on others & parents
 And be self-supporting; inspiring others likewise.
Add 'l' to 'end' and we have 'lend'
 It is good if we could lend or help the poor,
 Instead of borrowing from others;
 As helping the poor is lending to the Lord.
Add 'm' to 'end' and we have 'mend'
 That sincere & loving efforts to mend our ways
 To be better & humbler
 And to be exemplary for others.
Add 'r' to end and we have 'rend'
 To pull asunder or tear apart everything wrong
 Both within or without;
 Daring to speak & fight for the rights of the poor & underprivileged.
Add 's' to end and we have 'send'
 The art of relaying & sending good inspirations
 To all our friends, even financial support for genuine needy
 Especially for kids, so that they could have a good future.
Add 't' to 'end' and we have 'tend'
 That tender touch to tend to whatever we have
 With simplicity & purity
 So that we have less complication & difficulties.
Add 'v' to 'end' and we have 'vend'
 That ability to provide, like a vending machine
 For ourselves & loved ones
 Through prudent sufficient savings rather than to be dependent on others.
