What keeps you going?
I carry a copy of the little engine that could in my back pack.
I think I can, I think I can
Another I like
Just keep swimming , swimming
What are yours?

and
Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking.
When there are clouds in the sky
you'll get by.
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through
For you.
Light up your face with gladness,
Hide every trace of sadness.
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying.
You'll find that life is still worthwhile-
If you just smile
If that is too small to read, one of my favorite mantras is
"ATTITUDE IS 90% of EVERYTHING!!"
Others favorites include great quotes about perservance.

I personally believe, more than anything else,
our own attitude, and our perseverance, matter most.
Mine is God never gives you more than you can handle.
This is and all things are possible through him....... These have both proven true over and over again recently as God smacked me in my face to go back and finish school and keeps somehow making things work, days by day. Even when IM sure it's not going to. Everyday it does.
