Re: Inspirational Quotes

My grandfather grew up speaking German until he married my Swedish grandmother, and so his English was rather abbreviated. "Good enough isn't" was one of his that has stuck with me. Also "Don't stop (when) going uphill."

There was a country song that had a hook that I liked. I don't recall the artist nor know who the songwriter is, but hopefully will get help so he is given credit. "When you're going through Hell, don't stop."

Granted B chord amnesty by King of the Mutants (Long live the king).

Re: Inspirational Quotes

I think the songmaybe .....
If You're Going Through Hell (Before the Devil Even Knows)
Rodney Atkins
Well you know those times
When you feel like there's a sign there on your back
Says I don't mind if ya kick me
Seems like everybody has
Things go from bad to worse
You'd think they can't get worse than that
And then they do
You step off the straight and narrow
And you don't know where you are
Use the needle of your compass
To sew up your broken heart
Ask directions from a genie
In a bottle of Jim Beam
And she lies to you
That's when you learn the truth
If you're going through Hell
Keep on going, don't slow down
If you're scared, don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there     

Your vision is not limited by what your eye can see, but what your mind can imagine.
Make your life count, and the world will be a better place because you tried.

"Use the talents you possess, for the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except only the the best." - Henry Van Dyke
