Glad you like the photo; the quote by Shakespeare in the title -- ...graces in themselves speak what no words can utter." is precisely how that picture strikes me. So much bound up in that picture, grace, determination, confidence, fitness, culminating in an "athletic ballet" as the photographer called it.FCBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741867097151481332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-6977822401114135722008-07-21T07:55:00.000-07:002008-07-21T07:55:00.000-07:00I keep telling this to my children.

Every success story we've ever heard, read about or seen a movie about, involves this very concept--the absolute refusal to give up. My 6-year-old son Stephen can tell anyone when asked that the most important key to success is perserverance. He's mastered the concept of perservering in his video games until he wins the gold cup, or the most points, or the greatest number of stars. :) But I know that he and the other children will benefit greatly from applying this principle in every area of their lives. Thank you for sharing. And, as always, great photos! :)Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516485538999541969noreply@blogger.com
