We are now at the end of our first grading segment her at Caroline Center, and what a stressful ride it has been. However, the constant encouragement and “you can do it’s” from the staff has made it not as stressful as I know it could be for some. Despite the fact that the teachers here at Caroline Center have to do their job as our teacher’s, they are still sympathetic to our individual situations and try their best to do as much as possible to help us all! Here at Caroline Center I have already seen self-esteems built; confidence built; as well as what has the potential to be “life long friendships”. Because these past couple weeks have been a little stressful for many of us, I have decided to share a poem of encouragement to Never Give Up, by Mark Howard. I think this would alleviate some of the frustrations we all may be experiencing as of right now.
| Never Give Up by Mark Howard |
| I’ll never give up fighting till the end If I fall along the way I’ll get up and try again But never shall I accept the fact of defeat I’ve set goals in life and those I must meet But never will I let negativity hold me down Those who think positive I keep them around Never shall I dwell on things in the past Bad times come but never do they last I shall never give in to those who are weaker than I If I give up now why not lay down and die Never Give Up! |
| Anyone who may feel that you are at a point in your life where you dont think anything’s going to get better, I encourage to read this poem over and over again to yourself until YOU believe it!God Bless, Have a Wonderful Day! |
