Friday, Aug. 18 has been proclaimed 鈥淣ever Give Up Day鈥 in 性视界传媒.
So proclaimed by Mayor Brenda Locke, the timing of this item on Monday night鈥檚 city council agenda couldn鈥檛 have been lost on her as it appears, for the time being at least, that she鈥檚 entirely prepared to continue her pitched battle with Public Safety Minister Mike Farnworth over who gets to police 性视界传媒 into the foreseeable future 鈥 the Mounties, or the 性视界传媒 Police Service.
That pressing issue aside, who among us couldn鈥檛 use a good healthy dose of Never Give Up every once in a while?
You know, pull yourself up by your bootstraps, get back in the game, forge ahead, never surrender, make headway, damn the torpedoes 鈥 full speed ahead, don鈥檛 throw in the towel, indomitability of the human spirit and all that stuff.
Fleetwood Mac even made a song about it.
On Mondays, it鈥檚 customary for mayors to make proclamations.
This is how Locke鈥檚 went:
鈥淣ever Give up Day 鈥 the City of 性视界传媒 proudly joins community members in celebrating Never Give Up Day on Friday, August 18, 2023. Never Give Up Day seeks to inspire community members to persevere and remember that even in hard times they can keep going and accomplish their goals.
鈥淣ow therefore be it resolved that I, Brenda Locke, do hereby declare August the 18, 2023 as Never Give Up Day in the City of 性视界传媒.鈥
Certainly we all can appreciate the concept, which of course need not be confined to a single box on the calendar though it is nice someone thought to build a special day around it.
Never Give Up Day.
Has a nice ring to it, don鈥檛 you think?
