ATTITUDE CHANGES EVERYTHING.
Stand misfortune on its head.
Turn it into something good.
Don't let the disappointments get you down. Let them get you going, even stronger than before.
After all, life is how you look at it. Look at it all as an opportunity for grace and joy and fulfilment.
After all, life is how you look at it. Look at it all as an opportunity for grace and joy and fulfilment.
Every single time you feel like complaining about how bad things are, there's a much more powerful option. Visualize how truly good life can be and then take a bold, enthusiastic step in that direction.
Every situation is a situation in which you can choose to prosper. Every challenge helps to form the structure upon which you can build grand and meaningful success.
When anything pushes against you, choose to let it push you up. Every occasion is your occasion to brightly shine. ~ Ralph Marston
HORSES OF WORLD WAR 1 - PAYING RESPECT
His legs were broke, his wounds did bleed,
The soldier called him ‘Noble Steed’,
And put a bullet through his brain.
Then the soldier kneeling down,
Bent his head and cried,
‘You were the noblest beast of all,
Did your duty - answered the call’,
And I am filled with grateful pride
Through all the charges you carried me,
And never did you falter.
Though bullets whistled past your side,
And many men and horses died,
Your pace would never alter.
And so my friend this is goodbye,
I’ve done my best for you,
I’ve sent you to a safer place,
Where horses graze in gentle grace,
And wish I could go too.
Then in the sky above all noise,
He heard a singing lark.
He felt it was an Angel’s song,
And knew his life would not be long,
As the sniper’s bullet hit its mark.
They found them lying side by side,
A soldier and his noble Steed,
What sacrifice by man and beast,
Too high a price to pay for peace,
More than God and Man agreed.
(Grantham)
