The following is excerpted from the

W. H. Murray book

"The Scottish Himalayan Expedition"

and is, without a doubt,

among the most inspirational writing

we here at BreastCancerWarrior.net

have ever read....and so

we offer this to you, in the

hope that it will touch your heart and

inspire your soul, as it has done for us

for many years.

Until one is committed, there is hesitancy,

the chance to draw back,

always ineffectiveness.

Concerning all acts of initiative, and creation,

there is one elementary truth,

the ignorance of which kills countless

ideas and splendid plans:

The moment one definitely commits oneself,

then Providence moves too.

All sorts of things occur to help one

that would never otherwise have occurred.

A whole stream of events issues from that decision,

raising in one's favor

all manner of unforeseen incidents and

meetings and material assistance, which no one

could have dreamed would have come his way.

I have learned a deep respect

for one of Goethe's couplets:

"Whatever you can do, or dream you can,

begin it.

Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it".

-- William H. Murray
