Never Quit On Yourself
Looking out on the ocean that is so soft and blue. How the waves twist and
shine so wavy, so new. Newness of life seems to be taking place. My heart thrives
for a resting place in life. Oh, how I must get to that dwelling place. Never quit
on yourself! Try and find yourself. Once you find out who you really are, pursue
it. As always, never quit! You must never quit! As the sun seems to tint the
ocean, I feel my dreams arising in me . . . myself arising in me. Suddenly a voice
speaks to me saying, “Never quit on yourself, you can do it!” Yes, I can!
Oh, before I capture my dreams I must fi nd out who I really am. Who am I?
Who am I? Why am I really here? As the sound of a heart beat ticks, I discover
who I really am. How nice! Suddenly goals, dreams, values, and myself all seem
to come in place. I know why I am here. Now I have a place to belong. I know
who I really am. Thank God I didn’t quit on myself!
After so many changes in life, ways of living, and making so many mistakes, I’m
seeing that that is what it sometimes takes to learn not to quit on yourself. There
is a somebody in everybody. As the sun sets in place, so must our lives set in
place. Just as the tides of water overrides and takes place, so our hearts must
want a newness of change. We must not quit on ourselves. That is a challenge
in itself. Never quit on yourself. Strive to be who you really can be, to bring out
the best in yourself and others. Never quit on yourself. Make that this year’s
solute for yourself. Never quit on yourself!
