Day 37: Up and Down


Every once in a while there comes a day where I find myself possessing a new sense of purpose, or determination; a new resolve. Unsurprisingly, these days usually come after the ones where everything seems to be going downhill and everything is working against me. I'd be lying if I said I didn't let the discouragement get to me sometimes. But I have to limit the power that it has over me, and I have to find ways to overcome it and regain my strength. That's what today was all about.

The best part of days like this is that I'm allowed to feel good about myself when it's all said and done. I get to go to sleep knowing that I did my best and tried my hardest. That's all I can really ask of myself.

And the best part of my blog is that, when someday I start to feel discouraged about something again, I can look back at today's post and realize that I'll always have the strength to overcome it.

As the promises wash away
And the shelters become caves
You remain the dauntless one
The pillar, rock and shield

Song: "Better Days" by Goo Goo Dolls. Tonight's the night the world begins again.
