I never give up
Defeat only comes by refusing to continue the fight. No matter how bruised, bloodied or broken the battle leaves me I will be victorious so long as I keep on fighting. Each battle, won or lost, is valuable if lessons are learned and new skills are honed. I am a fighter and victory is mine. I refuse to give up on my myself and the journey to reach my full potential.

ReplyDeleteReminds me of one of my favorite poems....Invictus. I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.
ReplyDeleteInvictus
DeleteOut of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
--William Ernest Henley
