From the Paper:

"As humans, we make judgments every morning we open our eyes, for as long as they stay open. No two human beings are perfect, as no two men react the same way in a given situation. Yet, we are all the same, are we not? We advise when needed and encourage the ones close to us. Although three different men wrote three different poems, the common thought that the authors portray is the advice given by a father to a beloved son."
