The word of the day, according to Darla

Perserverance.  I'm closing in on my 4 year surgiversary, and this word, these thoughts, really speak to me.  I hope they speak to you, too.

~ Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other ~ Walter Elliot

~ A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what seemed hopeless failure may turn to glorious success. ~ Elbert Hubbard

~ Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did. ~ Newt Gingrich   (I quite dislike Newt, but he makes a really good point.)

~ Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. ~ Winston Churchill

~ No one succeeds without effort... Those who succeed owe their success to perseverance. ~ Ramana Maharshi

Chew on THAT for a while, people! 

I really like the last 2. thanks!!
Happy Friday!

I love all of these quotes! One reason I was nicknamed "Bulldog" is because of my perseverance. I pray my perseverance will continue throughout all my short races culminating in a successful long race.
