“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 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 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.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
(~)~(~)~(~)
Success is failure turned inside out,

LIFE
.
Life is but a stopping place
A pause on what’s to be
A resting place along the road
To sweet eternity.
~*~
We all have different journeys
Different paths along the way
We were all meant to learn some things
But never meant to stay.
~*~
Our destination is a place
Far greater than we know
For some the journey’s quicker

I Am The Flag
.

.
I am the flag of the United States of America.
.
I was born on June 14, 1777, in Philadelphia.
.
There the Continental Congress adopted my stars and stripes as the
national flag.
.
My thirteen stripes alternating red and white, with a union of
thirteen white stars in a field of blue, represented a new
constellation, a new nation dedicated to the personal and religious
liberty of mankind.
.
Today fifty stars signal from my union, one for each of the fifty
sovereign states in the greatest constitutional republic the world has
ever known.
.
My colors symbolize the patriotic ideals and spiritual qualities of
the citizens of my country.
.
My red stripes proclaim the fearless courage and integrity of American
men and boys and the self-sacrifice and devotion of American mothers
and daughters.
.
My white stripes stand for liberty and equality for all.
.
My blue is the blue of heaven, loyalty, and faith.
.
I represent these eternal principles: liberty, justice, and humanity.
.
I embody American freedom: freedom of speech, religion, assembly, the

LIFE

Every day somewhere in Africa
A gazelle wakes up
It knows it must run faster
Than the fastest lion around
Lest it be eaten

Every day somewhere in Africa
A lion wakes up
It knows it must run faster
Than the slowest gazelle around
Lest it starve to death
