I am steele
One day I will be the sharpest, strongest sword in the universe
But first I must be burnt, beaten and folded hundreds of thousands of times
And if I am flawed and break, then I will be discarded
I WILL NOT BE DISCARDED
For I am steele
And one day I will be the sharpest, strongest sword in the universe.
This is a litany I say to myself when things start getting bad. I made it up when I was around 10, it helps.

my 5th grade teacher told me 4 things
strive for excellence
your altitude depends upon your attitude
when you become 18, exercise your right to vote and participate in your government because even you can make a difference
and the last one is...
patience, endurance and kindness

CHRIST BE WITH ME
I arise today
Through God's strengh to pilot me,
God's might to uphold me,
God's wisdom to guide me,
God's eye to look before me,
God's ear to hear me.
God's word to speak to me,
God's hand to guard me,
God's way to lie before me,
God's shield to protect me.
Christ be with me, Christ before me,
Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me,
Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down,
Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me.
~~St. Patrick
By small and simple things, are great things brought to pass.
