* Losers often lose simply because theyre unaware of the joy of winning. Theyve quit so many times that theyve become accustomed to failure. This truth is illustrated in a poem titled Perseverance. Two frigs fell into a can of cream, Or so Ive heard it told. The sides of the can were shiny & steep; The cream was deep & cold. Oh, whats the use? said No. 1, Tis fate - no helps around. Good bye, my friend! Good bye, sad workd! And werping still, he drowned. But No. 2, of sterner stuff, Dog-paddled in surprise, The while he wiped his creamy face And dried his creamy eyes. Ill swim awhile, at least he said Or so Ive heard it said- It wouldnt really help the world If one more frog was dead. An hour or two he kicked and swam. Not once he stopped to mutter, But kicked and swam, And swam and kicked, Then hopped out via butter! - T.C. Hamlett
