Climb...

Where there seems no way to go

go anyway

don't be put off by what you can't see

get up any which way

scramble on hands and knees

ditching your pride

slide along the bottom for a stretch

clutch at roots

and keep going on

once up there you can look back to

the pathway you have cleared

that will make it easier

next time you climb.

~Eve Merriam

Happiness is everywhere,

and its spring is in our own heart.

~John Ruskin

Far away there in the sunshine

are my highest aspirations.

I may not reach them,

but I can look up and see their beauty,

believe in them,

and try to follow where they lead.

~Louisa May Alcott

Climb...Climb high above the clouds

Reach...I will be there to help you

(if only in my heart)

AND

Enjoy your week!
