Re: Poem of the Day

I've always found this one to be very motivational and inspiring. If— By Rudyard Kipling If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired...
