artistalareina Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Keep Going.When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, And 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 every one of us sometimes learns.And many a failure turns aboutWhen 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 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.Don’t Quitby Edgar A. GuestSomebody gave this to me on a little card long ago which I sadly lost…but I always remember this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
