Finest Hour


"We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and the oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender...
Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth lasts for a thousand years, men will still say,'This was their finest hour!'"
-Winston Churchill

I hope that one day, 
I can look back at tough times and be able to honestly 
say to myself that I never surrendered.
That those were my finest hours. 
The times when I fought hard
 and became better than I ever thought I could be.
