When disappointment lands its final blow, get up and try again.

Periodt.

End of story.

Rinse.

Repeat.

I wanted to give up last night. I mean really give up!

I told myself “That’s it! I am TIRED of being disappointed!!”

I told myself I was NOT lifting another finger, when it came to my dreams.

I was done!

I was finished!

These damned dreams are much too disappointing!

They are too heavy!!

I felt like a clown.

I felt like an impossible imposter.

I STILL feel the fool.

My dreams woke my mad up this morning. Said we had thangs to do.

doing thangs,

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: I put my whole heart, beloveds, into something. I was rejected so much as ignored. Completely.

I feel like a fool.

I feel:

Old.

Unable.

Incapable.

Alone.

Rejected.

Ugly.

Fat.

I did NOT want to drag my ugly, fat, old, lonely, incapable soul out of bed this morning.

I didn’t. I brought along my capable, able, ready, resilient, amazing self and started my day.

Yesterday’s try is done. Today I shall see if I flame out more brilliantly than yesterday’s apparent face plant. I fight on. You do the same.

Keep going. Keep moving FORWARD. Keep looking UP. Don’t give up because the day’s results gave you an emphatic no. Tomorrow’s results may contain the yes you have been waiting for. You’ll never know it you allow your loud disappointment to cause you to quietly quit.

I will never again quiet quit on my dreams. That’s why I stormed in here so loudly. THIS is when I must be the loudest. I have finally answered the question I have been asking all my life:

When can I be loud?

When turned out to be today.

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!
