Nature or nurture?
Behaviour
It should be learnt through experience
Not just parrot fashion
Some of what you say
Is very wise
And it is very clever
But then, in modesty, I only say that
Because it copies me
Your paraphrasing of what I say or write
Is odd,
It’s that desire that we must be the same
Behaviour
Is not doing the right thing
Without knowing why you are doing it
Or why you mean it
It should be learnt through experience
It should be fashioned
From laughter tears and hurt
All the life experience
That is how it works
