Your tired, your weak, your dam near exhausted, work all day and probably all night too, no time for anyone or anything, all this just to survive, just to make it and barely at that, you strive and you take it, you keep being your best self, you want to quit but you don't, you have this drive, this will, this faith, this strength and courage, God is what pushes you forward, hope itself, something keeps telling you "don't give up" - keep going, don't stop, don't give in, there will be no surrender, not tonight or ever, just one more step, just one more day, just one more round and by the grace of all that is holy you make through, you continue, you succeed in your own way, you overcome your own trials, you excel at your best self and everyday it becomes worth it, worth all the blood sweat and tears and you know in your heart you were made for this, you know things will change, you know deep down that when you have the faith to live fearlessly you transform every experience into an opportunity-giving up is no longer an option. ~(c) W.R -Goodmorning from here.

Giving up is always an option. Choosing not to take that option, comes from somewhere deep inside. No guts..no glory.

Very nice words! Thank you for posting them. These are quotes I often try to remember when things are tough: Nelson Mandela once said: Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. Teddy Roosevelt once said: Courage is not having the strength to go on; it is going on when you don't have the strength. But my favorite is from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: We must accept finite disappoint but never lose infinite hope.
