"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause/who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails daring greatly."
~Theodore Roosevelt
"Courage is not limited to the battlefield. The real tests of courage are much quieter. They are the inner tests, like enduring pain when the room is empty or standing alone when you're misunderstood."
~Charles Swindoll
"Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal."
~Earl Nightingale
From that great motivator at some point in time... Earl Nightingayle
"The moment you decide on a goal to work toward, you're immediately a successful person. You are then in that rare and successful category of people who know where they're going. Out of every hundred people, you belong in the top five. Don't concern yourself too much with how you are going to achieve your goal-leave that to a power greater than yourself. All you have to do is know where you're going. The answers will come to you of their own accord, and at the right time."
Pin a poppy above your heart, attend a local Rememberance Day ceremony and vow never to forget the sacrificies made for us.
Talk to a friend or relative that has just returned from a tour of duty and larn about their experiences.
Change your profile picture on any of your Social Media sites to a poppy or write on your blog about the importance of remembering.
Lest we forget!!!
Those of us at home are so blessed.
