Thought for the Day

I don't know where this quote comes from but I saw it written somewhere this morning and thought it was relevant to us lot!

"In following unfamiliar trails leading to distant goals, we may well pause from time to time and take a backward glance. Courage falters if our best efforts seem to bring us no closer to our objective, and if instead the road becomes rougher and more uncertain as unsuspected obstacles threat to check our progress. But as we look back over the distance that lies between our starting point and our present position, we realise that our striving was not in vain, that we have moved forward in spite of all impediments and have overcome difficulties once considered insuperable."
