a lesson for my children

I hope this is a lesson I will leave my children :)
and this week I think I saw this in an example by son number 2:) not that he failed, but that he dared
to do the uncertain:) and he had a glorious time:)
this quote has the exact words I have been looking for to describe what
I have been feeling lately:)
thanks teddy:)


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 nor suffer
much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.

Theodore Roosevelt (1858 - 1919)
