One of the poems from my novel, True Blue Forever.

Never give up on your goals No matter how hard or how small It's not as impossible as it seems Get up if you should fall Always be the best you can be Don't be afraid to give it your all Even if failure is all you can see Get up if you should fall No one can take away your dreams Stand up proud, brave, and tall No one can make you fail except you Get up if you should fall We have inside us the will to win God gives it to us all Use your gifts to make Him proud And He'll never let you fall

Wow, glad I got to read this. Crying over what to do be happy with moving to smaller place, or stay here and be happy too. I am definitely moving to a smaller place, but cannot seem to see me leaving this place either. Too many memories of hubby here. I guess things will work out. I cannot fall as you say Get up if you shall fall. Comforting piece of writing especially tonight.

I really appreciate this one. It is a comfort to me, and word of motivation to me, to not give up on my dreams, though I've sought long and hard for them, so I will do just that. Not give up. Leslie

Wow! This one is getting printed and posted on my bulletin board. Simple, poignant and it should be turned into a country song! Joyce is such an eloquant author. Thanks.

Wow, God is really speaking to me these days! He wanted me to hear this through you, I think. This is excellent! Very moving! I'm getting up! Great job! What is the book about?
