THE QUITTER
-Author Unknown-
It ain't the failures he may meet
That keeps a man from winning,
It's the discouragement complete
That blocks a new beginning;
You want to quit your habits bad,
And, when the shadows flitting
Make life seem worthless and sad,
You want to quit your quitting!
You want to quit a-laying down
And saying hope is over,
Because the fields are bare and brown
Where once we lived in clover.
When jolted from the water cart
It's painful to be hitting
The earth; but make another start.
Cheer up, and quit your quitting!
Although the game seems rather stiff
Don't be a doleful doubter,
There's always one more inning if
You're not a down-and-outer.
But fortune's pretty sure to flee
From folks content with sitting
Around and saying life's N.G.
You've got to quit your quitting!
It Takes Courage
Poet Unknown
It takes strength to be firm,
It takes courage to be gentle.
It takes strength to conquer,
It takes courage to surrender.
It takes strength to be certain,
It takes courage to have doubt.
It takes strength to fit in,
It takes courage to stand out.
It takes strength to feel a friend's pain,
It takes courage to feel your own pain.
It takes strength to endure abuse,
It takes courage to stop it.
It takes strength to stand alone,
It takes courage to lean on another.
It takes strength to love,
It takes courage to be loved.
It takes strength to survive,
It takes courage to live.
