Analysis of Cool



When you laugh at your own mistakes
That's so cool.

When you have a heart that likes to help others,
That's so cool.

When you accept praise and criticism alike
That's so cool.

When you succeed by your own efforts
That's so cool.

When you don't take success to your head
and defeat to your heart
That's so cool.

When you don't let go of people you love
And let go of things you can't control.
That's so cool.

When you shine for your deeds
rather than your looks.
That's so cool.

When you are remembered
for what nott you have
but for what you have accomplished
That's super cool.
