So had some disappointments recently.
Nothing terrible (and for that I am so grateful).
Just life happening.
Have to fail and fail and fail {more}…in order to get to that single success.
Along the way, sometimes it feels like arrows going through your body.
Or as someone said to Tina Fey in a movie we watched yesterday:
“Hearts and minds, the two best places to shoot someone.”
Is that funny?
Ok, now I know that I am feeling a little down, because even that made me smirk but not fully smile.
It’s okay.
Life is a series of peaks and valleys.
Time to climb that next peak.
I will do it with body armor on and solid.
Won’t let those arrows pierce me, while I ascend.
I am trying, and learning and growing along the way.
If I am to fall, Hashem, in mercy, pick me up that I may keep doing my mission you have for me in life, so that I may ultimately prevail toward the destiny only that You know and have planned for me, for the good. 😉
