I have friends far and away. Most of them are on the Internet. Close as a AOL or Yahoo Messenger. Almost closer on the Videophone too. I'm happy to see most of them on a social network site too. Most of them are from my NTID or Gallaudet days. Very few are from my high school days. The last few weeks, I've been cleaning out a storage room in my basement. I've been going through some things of what I've collected over the years. Some I decided to throw out. Some I decided to give it away so that others can use it. Some I'm keeping because of the precious memories of that person I've meet in this life.
Right now, I'm focusing on other tasks in my basement. But the worst is coming for me when I confront my more personal boxes that I need to go through. I'm wishing a good friend was with me so I could share my stories about what I'm looking at and then consider to either keep or toss the item. I may in the next few weeks take some pictures and post on my social network site for my friends to see.
Meanwhile, I want to post a few poem today for my readers. It was given to me by a good friend of mine long ago. He told me and said "When you feel sad and alone and think what to with your life, read this poem and then remember me.".
So, here it is:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't;
If you think you'd like to win, but think you cant,
It's almost a cinch you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out in the world we find...
Success begins with a fellow's will:
It's all in a state of mind.
Life's battles always don't go
To the stronger or faster man:
But soon or late, the man who wins
Is the one who thinks HE CAN!
unknown.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you to my precious friend of mine. I hope this helps others.
Have a great day!
Semper FI.
