Half an Apple

Don’t give up your dream when you are just only halfway, Two half dollars or a whole - it’s the same either way; But chop off your dream, and you will make yourself squirm, Lamenting, “what good’s a half apple to a half worm?”

I liked the analogy here...reads a bit like a proverb. I liked it. Thanks for sharing & have a pleasant evening, Sara

Thanks Sara! My older brother used to tell a joke, what's worse than taking a bite out of an apple and seeing a worm? Biting into an apple and seeing half a worm. :-)
