A psalm of liffe

Tell me not,in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.



Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art,to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.

Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
But to act,that each to-morrow
Find us farther than to-day.

Art is long,and time is fleeting,
And our hearts,though stout and brave,
Still,like muffled drums,are beating
Funeral marches to the grave!

In the world's broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of life,
Be not lire dumb,driven cattle!
Be a hero in the strife!

Trust no future, howe'er pleasant!
Let the dead past bury its dead!
Act,-Act in the living present!
Heart within,and god o'erhead!

Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And,departing,leave behind us
Footprints on the sand of time;

Footprints,that perhaps another,
Sailing o'er life's solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecred brother,
Seeing,shall take Heart again.

Let us,then, be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving,still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait.

Age is just a number,, she break the world record.

70-year-old woman smashes world record with a ludicrously fast marathon time . A pensioner is making us all look bad after completing the Boston Marathon with a ridiculously quick time . 70-year-old Jeannie Rice, set a new world record for her age category after finishing the race in just under three and a half hours. She did it in 3:27:50, to be exact. The grandmother, from Ohio, casually crossed the finish line and said she felt absolutely fine. The previous record for the 70+ women’s category was three hours, 35 minutes and 29 seconds, set by Helga Miketta in 2013. Jeannie crushed that record by more than seven minutes – and made it in to work the following Tuesday. Jeannie has been running marathons her whole life, with her debut in 1984 in Cleveland. Her fastest recorded time was three hours and 16 minutes at her second attempt in Columbus. Chicago was her 116th marathon.
