            the deadliest weapon---TONGUE
            the most worthless emotion--SELF PITY
                     AND...........
             the greatest joy--GIVING

             our greatest natural resource--THE YOUTH
             the greatest shot in the arm--ENCOURAGEMENT

             the most powerful force in life--LOVE
             the most fundamental part of love and

One does not read this piece as much as they feel it, but that's the ultimate goal in reading...we want to feel the words, not just see them...and one most certainly feels these lines when reading them...nice work :)
