Mid-week Mood Lifter

On Monday I received a note in the mail from a colleague and enclosed was a poem. It had been a rather rough day so reading it really lifted my spirits and the timing couldn't have been better. I wanted to share it here. Everyone has ups and downs in life and I'm sure we can all use a little inspiration to never give up :)

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,

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 queer with its twists and turns,

As everyone 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.

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.
