dont quit

when things go wrong as they sometimes will
when the road your 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 dont you quit

life is queer with its twists and turns
as everyone of us sometimes learn
and many a fellow 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

often the goal is nearer
when a faint and faltering man
often the struggler has given up
when he might have won the victor's cup
and he learned too late when the night came down
how close he was to the golden crown

success is failure turns 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 youre hardest hit
its when things seem worst, that you must not quit

wow, this poem is just my inspiration for this day! this just kept me going!
i never knew ill make it this far if not for this poem.. what an inspiration..
surely inspiration just pops out in such many and unfamiliar places that sometimes we just seem to overlook it. but it just keeps staring us in the eye and sometimes when were really that hardheaded, it comes round the corner to bite us in the ass! hehe..
but these inspiration, i would have to say, for me, is a blessing or moreover, a blessed discernment. just like a spark of light in such a dark place.. sudden yet youll never know how much you need light when youre in the dark.. ok my mind's running all over the place again. sorry:) just keep up with the thought.. anyway, that poem was my inspiration (and i kept on yakking about what inspiration is and how important it is) i hope that will be too after you read it..
well i better go sleep now, i have eyebags as large as the island of negros. and its sagging already up to my chin - eewww! haha.. anyway, thanks for reading.. ciao!
