About Me

Brian Keith O'Hara
When I was 17, I was talking to Elizabeth Adams, Administrative Secretary in the History Department at Georgia State University and she gave me a present, Two Poems printed on Posters, Rudyard Kipling's "If" and Robert Frost's "The Road Less Traveled". I asked her why, she said because they would mean something to me. Years later, I gave them to the kids of friends who were going through a rough time. I told Elizabeth and she said to me that our most valuable possessions are worthless if we hold on to them, but become priceless when we give them or share them with others.
