Life quote-don't quit
« on: June 04, 2008, 09:13:54 AM »
Here is a sort of a poem that I keep next to my desk in my office that I think applies to life, anxiety,etc.
I try to follow its message the best i can:

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road your trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't quit.

Life is strange with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learn,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out,
Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow,

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worse,
That you must not quit,
