World Never Give Up Day
August 18 · Level 9 · #440 of 2238
This day is a reminder that hard times pass and persistence keeps you moving. It is a moment to cheer on yourself and others when energy runs low.
How it is celebrated: people trade stories of challenges they have overcome, send encouraging notes to friends and colleagues, and some set out on a walk or a run to reach a goal.
The theme often brings to mind Winston Churchill's 1941 speech at Harrow School, where he urged his audience never to give in.
