"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." — Confucius
"If life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up. And if you get up, you can stand up. And if you stand up, you can fight for your dream once again. You have something special. You have GREATNESS within you!" — Les Brown
"Everyone falls down. Getting back up is how you learn how to walk." — Walt Disney

Good morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs No one has failed to fall down at some point in their life. What matters is whether you get up and try again. Babies learning to walk, fall time and again and none of them quit trying. Somehow as adults we seem to think it is a failure to fall and refuse to recognize that it is just part of the learning process. No one learns without mistakes, without falls. Ask a star gymnast or skier how many times they fell and got back up.
What matters is that you get up as many times as you fall!
Or per Kerry Hawkins, get up one more time than you fall.

Lt Col Charlie Brown - Great examples of professional athletes that keep on getting back up and trying again - it's the natur of their buisness, but so it is for all of us as well Charlie, as parents, husbands, wives, leaders, friends. Are busines is to keep on trying to help each other, teach our families right from wrong, be good spouses, and be Leaders with Courage and Character - leading even when we are failing is so critical. You and Tom have a great Thursday evening Charlie! Thanks for the awesome quote today!

I pray that you and I are wise and discerning and willing to help lift up others around us who have fallen physically, emotionally or psychologically, my friend and sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.
LORD give each of YOUR own eyes to see, ears to hear and a heart sensitive to YOU. Empower us to be helpful to each and very person YOU guide us towards or bring across our path. Each human is created by YOU in YOUR image. Empower us to see people as YOU see them as intrinsically valuable in and of themselves.
I pray each and every widow, widower, prisoner, wounded, diseased, PTSD sufferer, and distraught person who is in desperate need will cry out to YOU in their heart or vocally. I pray that YOU use each of us help through our time, talents, and treasures. Use prayer warriors to intercede and bless each and every one who desperately cries out to YOU by fulfilling the deepest desire of their heart and soul – even tonight.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

I'm sure we all can relate to this one...
“If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down, but the staying down.”-- MARY PICKFORD
Good Thursday RP Friends
