***Here are a few words of wisdom:
Cy Young was a great American baseball player. In his memory, an award
for the best major-league pitcher was created - the Cy Young Award.
Listen to what he has to say to us today:
In our day, when a pitcher got into trouble in a game,
instead of taking him out, our manager would leave him
in and tell him to pitch his way out of trouble.
The game of baseball has often been compared to the game we call Life.
So today, you might ask yourself these questions: Do I walk off the field
too quickly when I'm in trouble of failing? Am I too eager to walk away and
let someone else deal with the mess I leave behind?
Next time you've pitched yourself into trouble - take responsibility for your
actions, hang in there, and keep pitching until you've turned the problem
around.
With something to think about, Make it a great day . . or not. The choice is yours.
