Be Thankful
 
Be thankful that you don’t already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
 
Be thankful when you don’t know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
 
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
 
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
 
Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your strength and character.
 
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
 
Be thankful when you’re tired and weary,
because it means you’ve made a difference.
 
It’s easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
 
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings.

Invictus by William Ernest Henley

Invictus by William Ernest Henley

INVICTUS 👏🙏

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul

In addition to the action-packed schedule, the festival will include a Quiet Hour every day from 10am – 11am, specially designed to create a calmer, low-sensory environment for those who benefit from a quieter setting — making the event inclusive and accessible to all.

“CV Life is really excited to be a part of Sports Fest again this year. As always, the event is going to be great and I hope we get to see lots of happy faces and families enjoy what will be on offer. Local clubs, groups and organisations will provide a whole host of activities to engage with all ages and abilities. We hope to see as many people enjoy the week of free activities and get as many people as possible active outdoors this summer holiday.”
