Single mothers
The disabled who still kick
People working the grind but
Keep a smile on their face.

Legitimate non-profit organizations
Mentors who truly want to teach with-out
The fear of someone learning
Their secrets and overtaking them.

Anyone who has the courage to ask a
Question when they don't
Know the meaning of a word
Phrase or they just simply want to
Learn more on subject.

It is heroic to put yourself up
For ridicule by asking a question and
Admitting temporary ignorance
It is much easier to pretend you know the answer.

I know the brightest person in the
Room is the one who makes himself the fool
Dares to asks questions, is self-deprecating
Finds his own 'humanity' hilarious and will
Throw themselves and their pride
'under the bus' to make another laugh
That is someone working on a higher level.
