Don't Quit
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,When 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 every one of us sometimes learns,And many a failure turns about,When he might have won if he'd stuck it out.Don't give up, though the pace seems slow -You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer thanIt seems to a faint and faltering man;Often the struggler has given upWhen 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 afar;So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.

Blessings from me to you...

May the passions guide you,
Where your head holds you back.
May the brightness of the day,
Bring the truths to your dreams of night

May life’s little treasures,
Dance upon your toes,
And make your heart giggle,
About the goals you call your own.

May love’s ever gentle hand,
Hold you when you are weak.
May you always feel protected,
By the magic that I speak.

Hold close to the wants,
Of the life you call your own.
You have everything inside,
Just turn over the stones.

May the drummer in your heart,
Beat the drum that he must drum.
May you never feel alone or blue,
Someone is looking out for you.
