Oh my!
It is already in the middle of February 2017..
The very first entry after so many half-way-done trials..
Alhamdulillah.. Subhanallah.. Allahuakbar..
May this year will be another great year for My WOW..
My World of Wisdom..
Starting the very first entry of this year
by sharing two most inspiring poems for me since ages..
The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost
which I learnt it since secondary school years years ago..
and Don't Quit by Anonymous which I found from
wish cards that I once gave them for friends in 2012/13..
May at least a sentence from these poems will be your
Words of Wisdom to keep on moving forward this year..

by: Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both..
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference..
Don't Quit
by: Anonymous
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When 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 don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won if he'd stuck it out.
Don't give up, though the pace seems slow -
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man;
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
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 afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.
