If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or, being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream - and not make dreams your master; If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with triumph and disaster And treat those two imposters just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to broken, And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breath a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on"; If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch; If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run - Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Don't go pink if you're feeling blue - you might bite off more than you can chew :-)

Hi, Below are a few sayings people have told me in life,wanted to share them with you and wondered if you`ve been given good advice, sayings etc. * An eye for an eye can only lead to blindness * To play it safe is not to play * Enjoy failure and learn from it, you never learn from success * The way to change minds is with affection,not anger * If you want creative workers,give them time to play * Everyone believes easily whatever they fear or desire * Life is what happens to you when your busy making other plans * Everything you can imagine is real * They lived and laughed and loved and left * Show me a sane man and i will cure him for you * Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter * A cure for seasickness is to sit under a tree * A day without laughter is a day wasted * Imagination is intelligence having fun * Your only young once but you can be immature forever * The man who has no imagination has no wings * Dream as if you will live forever. Live as if you will die tomorrow
