Hold on


If

Rudyard Kipling

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!

Let Go

Letting go is a practice of releasing; having let go is a state of freedom

Good Friend

A good friend is someone who's there for you through the good times and sticks around in the bad times as well. It's someone whom you can call at 3am and cry and vent to them and they won't think less of you but they'll listen to you even if they're not interested in what you're saying...they'll listen because they see it's important to you. A good friend is someone who sees you at your worst but doesn't hold it against you because they've seen you at your best. A good friend is someone who tells you the truth especially in times when you're not too keen on hearing it. A good friend laughs with you, cries with you and screams along with you.

Pay Attention

My flower collection photo, at sohar corniche (beach side). I was amazed how  colorful and beautiful they are. Nourished with proper sunlight, and right humidity.
