?but I can't help posting it. I randomly found this today (while surfing celebrity gossip, no, I don't read poetry on Friday mornings...) and even though it?s sort of cheesy, it made me a little emotional because I could really relate it to my personal experience, and all the struggles we are all going through, with IF.
If ever I have the need for a little one?s room, I?m going to hang this above the crib.
Don?t Quit
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you?re trudging seems all uphill,
When funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don?t you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don?t give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you?re hardest hit,
It?s when things seem worst that you must not quit.
