Listen to Grandma, I was told.

“Little steps help you climb the ladder of success.”
“Never look back, onward and upwards.”
“Wipe away the smears of detractors.”

Thanks, Grandma.

“Shine in your achievements; be part of the gleaming city.”

Good advice; so I quit university and became a window cleaner.
