This has been one of those weeks… I’m not sure why, but I thought about this piece by Kipling today.. Thank goodness for Google… in a matter of moments I had found the entire quote.  It’s Friday night and I feel better now.  Thank you 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 meet with Triumph and Disaster and treat those two impostors just the same
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it.

~ (Joseph) Rudyard Kipling
