For those waiting for anything, giving up is always an option.
The thought of quitting is ever present especially when the battle is fierce.
Why should I carry on I use to ask myself? I Have a perfectly good Ife with the best man ever. Together we can travel the world and live as “DINKs”. (Double Income No Kids).
These thoughts where constantly present especially after a hard fought battle.
I came across this poem while trying and kept it in my diary.
I was encouraged by it to stay the course and I hope it encourages you too.
Don’t Quit
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will. When The Road you’re trudging seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the debts are high. And you want to smoke but you have to sign.Trust in the Lord and don’t quit.
Life is strange with its twist and turns, As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a person turns about.
When he might have worn had he stuck it out.
Don’t give up. Though the pace seems slow. You may succeed with another blow.
Often the struggler has given up when he might have captured the victor’s cup. And he learned too late when the night came down. How close he was to the golden crown.
Remember this truth when you start to doubt; Success is failure turned inside out;
Stick to the fight when you are harder hit. It’s when things seems worse that you mustn’t quit.
