Persevere · 17 June 2017

Picture yourself as a baby learning to walk.
Get up. Fall down.
Get up. Fall down.
Get up. Fall down.
Get up………………… Fall down………………… Rest a while.
Then do it all over again.
Until you just get up and finally walk.

      Persevere

Keep doing it until you get it right.
Remember this as you go through life.
You learned to walk. You learned to run.
You just kept going. Until you got the job done.

And all that time, you had people cheering you on.
      “You can do it,”
      “Never give up.”
Friends, family, people you did not know.
But you never did it for them.
You just kept getting up.
For you.

Get up. Fall down.
Get up. Fall down.
Get up. Fall down.
Rest a while.
Then get up again.

We will still cheer you on.
Like when you were a baby.
And now you can cheer others on too.
You can help them to…
Get up. Fall down.
Get up. Fall down.
Get up. Fall down.
Rest a while.
Then get up again.

Persevere.
Then help others to………………… persevere.
