I May not reach the heights I seek,
My untried strength may fail me;
Or, half-way up the mountain peak
Fierce tempest may assail me.
But though that place I never gain,
Herein lies comfort for my pain--
I will be worthy of it.
I may not triumph in success,
Despite my earnest labour;
I may not grasp results that bless
the efforts of my neighbour.
But though my goal I never see,
This thought shall always dwell with me--
I will be worthy of it.
The golden glory of Love's light
May never fall on my way;
My path may always lead through night,
Like some deserted by-way.
But though life's dearest joy I miss,
There lies a nameless strenght in this--
I will be worthy of it.
By Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Its Sunday; either the end of a whirlwind week or the beginning of another one.
I thought I had a good topic to write tonight, but when I sat down to write... Blank! So enjoy the above poem, and may it be the inspiration to help through the upcoming week.
Time, Gentlemen, please.
