Today is Tuesday, May 20th, 2008; Karen's Korner #1317

Writing out our last graduation card to be mailed for an out-of-state graduate. I came across a bookmark which I have had for awhile; it seemed just right to tuck in the card.
 
Seemed sort of right for me today, 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 smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit---
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
 
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 afar.
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit---
It's when things go wrong that you must not quit.
