When things go wrong...

"When Things Go Wrong"

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but do not quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.

Don't give up though the pace seems slow -
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.

And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Temburong Outing - Ayam Serama

Temburong Outing - Jejak Kasih

After quite a number of years since we both left the then Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah Teachers Training College in Gadong (in 1981) I was glad to be able to meet the now Acting Temburong District Officer Tuan Haji Metussin bin Orang Kaya Sura Haji Tuba last Saturday 29th March 2008. Since he was on official duty that day, we only managed to briefly greet each other. Both of us had started our career as teachers and have now changed our profession.
