7th August

In life there are many battles we have to fight, many races we have to run. Some you will win, some you will lose. It takes hard work, courage and determinàtion to stand on the winners’ podium.

This race is for the sturdy and only those who enter the arena  can win. The rest of us are mere spectators.  However, never give up the fight because Victory is always around the corner and you never know when it is going to come.

Today consider what race you are in, and are you winning or losing. What are you going to do about it so that you emerge victorious.

“I wanted the world to know that my country Ethiopia has always won   with determination heroism.”

Abebe Bikila: 7th August 1932  – 1973 (long distance runner)
