Dare to a life of action, says Teddy.

“A soft, easy life… impairs the fibre of brain and heart and muscle. We must dare to be great; and we must realize that greatness is the fruit of toil and sacrifice and high courage… For us is the life of action, of strenuous performance of duty; let us live in the harness, striving mightily; let us rather run the risk of wearing out than rusting out.”

“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in that grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.”

― Theodore Roosevelt

Look not at what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.

Take stock. Live courageously.

Love & Light,
Julie
