Rolling Muscles, Lapping Waves by Gabriel Garbow

Thanks to our Friend for sending us this beautiful art

“Courage doesn't always roar. 

Sometimes courage is the little voice 

at the end of the day that says 

I'll try again tomorrow.” 

~Mary Anne Radmacher

“The mountains that enfold the vale

With walls of granite, steep and high,

Invite the fearless foot to scale

Their stairway toward the sky. 

The restless, deep, dividing sea

That flows and foams from shore to shore,

Calls to its sunburned chivalry,

"Push out, set sail, explore!" 

And all the bars at which we fret, 

That seem to prison and control, 

Are but the doors of daring, set

Ajar before the soul. 

Say not, "Too poor," but freely give;

Sigh not, "Too weak," but boldly try,

You never can begin to live

Until you dare to die.” 

~Henry Van Dyke
