Don't QUIT!!!

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high.
And you want to smile, but have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don't quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems to slow
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer then
It seems to a faint and faltering man;
When he might have captured the victor's cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out-
The silver tint of the clouds of doubts,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit-
It's when things seem worst that you musn's QUIT!

to everyone who's preparing for SPM,
do remember to have some fun and not to cram;
although some info may not fit,
all the best and don't quit!
