The Places You'll Go


POWELL PLATEAU / TANNER CANYON SIDEWALL

HERMIT BASIN / CAPE SOLITUDE / VIEW WEST FROM HOPI PT.


You have
brains in your head.
You have
feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know
what you know.
And YOU are the one
who'll decide where to go.
So be sure
when you step,
step with care
and great tact,
and remember that life's
A Great Balancing Act.
And will you succeed?
Yes! You will, indeed!
(98 and ¾ percent guaranteed)



You'll get mixed up,
of course,
as you already know.
You'll get mixed up
with many strange birds
as you go.
So be sure
when you step,
step with care
and great tact,
and remember that life's
A Great Balancing Act.
Just never forget
to be dexterous and deft,
and never mix up
your right foot
with your left.

--Dr. Seuss
Oh, The Places You'll Go!
