And You Have SO Much Left

Oh, my friend, it’s not what they take away from you that counts.  It’s what you do with what you have left. – Hubert Humphrey

People discount themselves all the time.

We have so many resources within us, things that can never be taken away or depleted.

Remember that when things look tough, when you’re not sure if you can go on, or even start.

What you have within is so much – it’s what you always have left.
