When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you are truding seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the depts are high
And you want to simile but you have to sign,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Reset,if you must but dont’you quit!
Life is queen with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometime learns,
And many failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow-
You might succeed with another blow
Success is failure turned inside out-
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you can never tell how close you are
It may near when it seems afar:
So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit
It’s when things get worse that you mustn’t quit!
My mother’s favorite poem!
