Words of Encouragement for Creators

Ira Glass on Storytelling from David Shiyang Liu on Vimeo.  I came across this video on a blog that I follow, The Decorista.  It couldn't have come at a better time.
It's tough trying to raise and breed a blog.   It's tough to feel like you're not being recognized, and think "maybe I'm not as creative as I thought I was," or "maybe I don't have what it takes to maintain a blog."   I am realizing on a daily basis that this "world" is what you make of it.   Maintaining a blog IS the success of a blog.  Perseverance IS the only way to grow your blog.  And patience... is still a virtue.  Patience with the process, and patience with yourself.
I hope this reaches someone like it reached me today  :)
Kindly~

Do Not Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit -
Rest if you must, but do not quit.

Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt;
And you can never tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things go wrong that you must not quit.
