NEVER GIVE UP CAUSE IT'S ALWAYS SOMETHING !!!


A few years ago at the Seattle Special Olympics, nine contestants, all
physically or mentally disabled, assembled at the starting line for the
100-yard dash.

At the sound of the gun, they all started out, not exactly in a dash, but
with a relish to run the race to the finish and win. All, that is, except
one boy who stumbled on the asphalt, tumbled over a couple of times and
began to cry.

When the other eight heard the boy cry, they slowed down and looked back.
Then they all turned around and went back... every one of them. One girl
with Down's Syndrome bent down and kissed him and said, "This will make it
better." Then, all nine contestants linked arms and walked across the
finish line together.

Everyone in the stadium stood, and the cheering went on for several
minutes.

People who were there are still telling the story. Why? Because deep down
we know this one thing:

What matters in this life is more than winning for ourselves. What truly
matters in this life is helping others win, even if it means slowing down
and changing our course.
