I  AM  YOUR  POLICY

You and I have similar purposes in this world.

It is your job to provide food, clothing, shelter,
schooling, medicine and sundry other things
for your loved ones; you do this while I lie 
in your strong box.

I have faith and trust in you. Out of your earnings
will come the cost of my upkeep. At times, I may
appear to be worthless to you...but someday (and
who knows when) you and I will change places.

When you are laid to rest, I will come alive
and do your job. I will provide the food, clothing,
schooling, medicine and other things your family
will continue to need --- just as you are doing now.
When your work and toil are done, mine will begin.
Through me, your hands will carry on.

Whenever you feel the price you are paying 
for my upkeep is burdensome, remember that
I will do more for you and your family 
than you ever can do for me.

If you do your part, I will do mine.
