Most of us may have already faced real tough times in our lives. There were times when we were almost overwhelmed by the challenges we face and we thought of backing out,

One of the tougher challenges I faced before was when I joined a Fraternity in the University. The initiation rites went on for one month and the final rites for 1 whole day. "One day in Hell!"

I got beaten black and blue but I never regret it because I learned one very important thing. During the initiation, we were required to seriously memorize the poem "Don't Quit". In the final rites, we were told to recite this poem out loud while being hit with the paddle.

That experience made me a survivor and strengthened my will power to keep it going when the going gets tough.

I would like to share this poem from my heart, to all members of the WA Community.
