This is a page with some of Birgit's M.G.T.'s that have struck home with me pretty strongly. She's gracious enough to let me put them on the page here. Thank you Birgit *hugs*

Don't Quit

Don't quit when the tide is lowest,
For it's just about to turn;
Don't Quit over doubts and questions,
For there's something you may learn.

Don't quit when the night is darkest,
For it's just a while 'til dawn;
Don't quit when you've run the farthest,
For the race is almose won.

Don't quit when the hill is steepest,
For your goal is almost nigh;
Don't quit, for you're not a failure
Until you fail to try.

It can be helpful simply to make a written or mental list of the things you do each day. Then give yourself a mental credit for each of them, however small. This will help you focus on what you have done instead of what you haven't gotten around to do. It may sound simplistic, but it works.

LIFE IS.......

Life is a challenge - meet it.
Life is a gift - accept it.
Life is an adventure - dare it.
Life is a sorrow - overcome it.
Life is a tragedy - face it.
Life is a duty - perform it.
Life is a game - play it.
Life is a mystery - unfold it.
Life is a song - sing it.
Life is an opportunity - take it.
Life is a journey - complete it.
Life is a promise - fulfill it.
Life is a beauty - praise it.
Life is a struggle - fight it.
Life is a goal - achieve it.
Life is a puzzle - solve it.
Life is eternal - believe it.

"When your health is an issue, remember that through the eyes of hope, even illness can be seen as a gift - an opportunity to acquire wisdom born of adversity. Embrace this opportunity, and bind it with your faith. With hope, we learn to keep on living our lives courageously and diligently in the face of adversity."

NEVER LET GO

I want to let go, but I won't let go,
There are battles to fight,
By day and by night,
By the galant and right,
And I'll never let go.

I want to let go, but I won't let go,
I'm sick tis true,
Worried and blue,
Worn through and through,
But I won't let go.

I want to let go, but I won't let go,
I will never yield,
What, lie down on the field,
And surrender my shield?
NO! I'll NEVER let go.

I want to let go, but I won't let go,
May this be my song
'Mid legions of wrong,
O, God, Keep me strong;
That I may never let go.

Peace & Light,
