The Ladder Of Life Has Its Splinters.
As Long As We Ascend, We Climb With
The Points; But Look Out, If We Start
To Slip.
The Great Law Of Life Is Ascension.
And In Case You Slip, Pick Out The
Splinters And Keep Climbing.
There Has Never Been A Person Up
Toward The Top Without Splinter Prints.
It May Sound Trying And Painful To Climb
Two Hours And Pick Splinters One Hours,
But To Alternate One’s Efforts In Such
Proportions Will Never See Him At The
Bottom Of The Ladder.
Give Us The Heart To Climb And When We
Slip To Climb Again.

I Steadier Step When I Recall That, If I Slop,
Thou Dost Not Fall.
* Arthur Hugh Clough 1819-1861
+ A Bible Verse +
Hold Up My Goings In Thy Path, That My Footsteps
Slip Not. * Psalms 17:5
