Don't Quit
|
Posted By: Gigi Lee on May 16, 2009 I decided to share one of my Favorite Poems with you. It's well known, motivating and powerful. Enjoy. When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're 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 you quit. Life is **** with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, 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. Often the goal is nearer than, It seems to a faint and faltering man, Often the struggler has given up, When he might have captured the victor's cup, And he learned too late when the night slipped down, How close he was to the golden crown. 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 worst that you must not quit. - Author unknown Ps your friend Gigi Wishing you all Great Success Go sign up at my website: www.dream-pursuit.com and tell a friend.

Gigi, to me as I read this beautiflu work of art I came to the conclusion that the "author" of this poem is every mother's (giving)advice/instructions on that which will keep her child(ren) safe and secure as they go out into that unknown called life... Thanks for sharing this with me(smile) Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM |
