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 might succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the stuggler 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 maybe near when it seems afar.
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit;
It's when things seem worst when you musn't quit!

I am always hopeful to whatever life has to offer me, I believe challenges are made for us to learn from it. We tend to use our experience in life, to shape our future and be a better person.
I have lots of challenges since childhood, that to others thought I shouldn't be expereincing at a very young age. This made me strong, I understand more about feelings and lives of other people. That's why I am here, to share it and inspire others!;)

every single day we are faced with some life challenge, and often several. Sometimes, the challenges defeat us, and we suffer. Sometimes we are victorious, and from our experience we learn and grow.
