Then I turned to him commanding That he go the way he came, whence he came. But he answered me in sorrow, May the Past not seek to borrow From the Present without blame - Just one memory from its store, Ere it goes to come no more, Back the pathway that it came, whence it came?

Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Who would attain to summits still and fair,Must nerve himself through valleys of despair.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
When the heart grows weary, all things seem dreary When the burden grows heavy, the way seems long. Thank God for sending kind death as an ending, Like a grand Amen to a minor song.

It is never too late to begin rebuilding, Though all into ruins your life seems hurled For see! how the light of the New Year is gilding The wan, worn face of the bruised old world.

We waste half our strength in a useless regretting We sit by old tombs in the dark too long.
