When

When you in daily thought accrue more good than you had set to do. When you can stand with chin up high, and hear your earthly brothers cry. When in each day you strive to reach your goal, and in your path there find a struggling soul. When you did smile, and was returned a frown, When you did help, and not recieve a crown. When you ran the race, and did not win, but still you ran, you did not give in. When in each day you've done these  things you've wrought, then you have done much better than you thought.

Additional Notes:
I know someone will say something about when being repetitive, but that is what is intended, as it is the title.
