Keith's Favorite Quotes
THE MAN WHO THINKS HE CAN
If you think you are beaten,you are,
If you think you dare not, you don`t.
If you`d like to win, but think you cant`t,
It`s almost a cinch you won`t.
If you think you`ll lose, you`ve lost,
For out in this world we find,
Success begins with a fellow`s will:
It`s all in the state of mind.
If you think you`re out classed, you are:
You`ve got to think high to rise.
You`ve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.
Life`s battles don`t always go
To the stronger or faster man,
But sooner or later the man who wins,
Is the one who thinks he can.

KEEPING THE FAITH: RANDOM PRAYERS "ON THE DOWNLOAD"
DEAR GOD: My heart is heavy with my own failures. I try to excuse them and explain to myself why they occurred, because I want to be free from the feeling that I am unworthy and incapable of being all that I can be. But I find it easier to accept your forgiveness than to forgive myself. When I try to forgive myself, it seems I only remember and re-play my failures in my mind, and a sense of hopelessness floods over me. Help me to know that my past actions are a part of my growing humanity and that even when I fail to live up to what is your will for me, every single moment can be lived anew. Remind me that refusing to forgive myself only keeps me from experiencing that newness. Assure me of the truth that by casting “my sins into the depth of the sea”, you have freed me to discard them myself and live the next moment as if it were my first, for indeed it is. I ask this for the sake of your love. Amen.

Thanks man..I needed some inspiration today!
Great Quote! Sounds like Rudyard Kipling!
Hey cousin, I like this. I'm going to copy it for my grandson. The poem speaks the language of the bible reminding us of the miracle of our creation and creative abilities.
