| Hey everyone!
I have a GREAT quote that I came across, it's a little long.. It's from a book that I refer to whenever things get a little rough.. Midget girls- you may remember I brought the book to practice after Regionals last year.
HERE IT GOES:
"Courage is admitting that you're afraid and facing that fear directly. It's being strong enough to ask for help and humble enough to accept it.
Courage is standing up for what you believe in without worrying about the opinions of others. It's following your own heart, living your own life, and settling for nothing less than the best for yourself.
Courage is daring to take a first step, a big leap, or a different path. It's attempting to do something that no one has done before, and all others thought impossible.
Courage is keeping heart in the face of disappointment, and looking at defeat not as an end but as a new beginning. It's believing that things will ultimately get better even as they get worse.
Courage is being responsible for your own actions, and admitting your own mistakes without placing blam on others, It's relying not on others for your success, but on your own skills and efforts.
Courage is refusing to quit even when your intimidated by impossibility. It's choosing a goal, sticking with it, and finding solutions to the problems.
Courage is thinking big, aiming high, and shooting far.
IT'S TAKING A DREAM AND DOING ANYTHING, RISKING EVERYTHING, AND STOPPING AT NOTHING TO MAKE IT A REALITY."

I am still determined to be cheerful and happy, in whatever situation I may be; for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances.

the battles that would cripple others.

the last 2 minutes and 30 seconds
Its believing in every
person that walks beside you, and not
letting anyone steal the light from our
eyes. We are young, and we are great - UNKNOWN AUTHOR

| Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can. - John Wesley
The Competitor's Creed
author-unknown
The contest lasts for moments
though the training's taken years.
It wasn't the winning alone
that was worth the work and tears.
For in trying to win you build a skill;
You learn that winning depends on will.
You never grow by how much you win,
You only grow by how much you put in.
So in any new challenge you've just begun,
Put forth your best and you've already won!
Twas the night before competition-author unknown
, and all through the bunch
Not a person was tired, not even the coach
Awards were hung in the hall with care
In hopes that another would soon be there.
The uniforms were nestled in the small suitcase,
The shoes were kept close and tied with lace,
Finally, asleep we dreamt of winning,
Waking to the sound of one of our bases singing.
We ate a healthy breakfast, our coach said it is a must.
We loaded onto our bus; the only thing we left behind was dust.
We entered the gym, hopefully on time,
But only to find
That we were in the wrong town
We started to drive, this time west bound.
We finally made it, and started to unpack,
To find nothing that we lack.
We're ready to go
But just then (somebody's name) yelled, "Owe I've sprained my toe!"
We wrapped it up tight,
This time ready to fight.
As we took the floor,
I recall thinking, Man I'm gonna be sore.
We did our routine, with a few mistakes,
We had a few more sprains, but thankfully, no breaks.
We went off smiling, happy, cheerful, and doing a jump.
Knowing that we'd lost but hoping for second.
When the announcers called out who had won
We were nowhere to be found we started to leave thinking we were done.
But then he quickly yelled out,
"Hey, (where ever you're from) you've just won, with out a doubt."
Shocked and amazed, joyful and surprised,
We smiled gratefully and took our prize,
We'd always remember this day,
Every time we say,
"Congratulations to all,
And to all a good year."
i no its a lot but i thought they were really good poems!!!!!...and quotes
