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 DEPTS 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 ODD 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. DONT 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 SEEMS SO FAR. SO STICK TO THE FIGHT WHEN YOU'RE HARDEST HIT. IT'S WHEN THINGS SEEM WORST THAT YOU MUST NOT QUIT.

LISTEN WITH YOUR HEART by HELEN STEINER RICE MEMORIES ARE TREASURES TIME CANNOT TAKE AWAY, SO MAY YOU BE SURROUNDED BY HAPPY ONES TODAY. MAY ALL THE LOVE AND TENDERNESS OF GOLDEN YEARS WELL SPENT COME BACK TODAY TO FILL YOUR HEART WITH BEAUTY AND CONTENT, AND MAY YOU WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE AND MEET THE ONE YOU LOVE, FOR WHILE YOU CANNOT SEE HIM, HE'LL BE WATCHING FROM ABOVE... SO FOR HIS SAKE BE HAPPY AND SHOW HIM THAT HIS LOVE HAS PROVEN STRONG AND BIG ENOUGH TO REACH DOWN FROM ABOVE... FOR JUST AS THE FATHER RAISES THE DEAD AND GIVES THEM LIFE, EVEN SO THE SON GIVES LIFE TO WHOM HE IS PLEASED TO GIVE IT... JOHN 5:21
