new year

it's been 30 days i welcomed the year 2007. i remembered that before the clock turned 12, i think i did something crazy. i burned everything that would make me hold on to my past.(pictures, letters, etc.) i burned "our picture" because everytime that i look at it, it just gives me false hopes..absurd isn't it? i realized that my life will not change if i always think the same way.
looking back, 2006 has been a good year for me. but, i believe, this year will be much better because i know that God will bless my life more.

Don't Quit



When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
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.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a 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.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

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 seem worst that you mustn't quit.
