Don't Quit

Came across this poem and I find it really meaningful. I think it would be thoughtful for me to share it with all of you. Here it goes:


Don't Quit

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 a 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 seemed so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
It's when things seemed worst that you mustn't quit.



Inspiring, isn't it?

I just hope that things are fine with you being so far away from us. No matter how bad things may be, it will go off sooner or later. As the saying goes, "When the going gets tough, the tough gets going." Hang on there, a'ight?
