Jodie, you can't resign, lie there, or surrender. Go watch a documentary on Gene Kranz, or see the movie Apollo 13. When the space race started, there were thousands of young engineers that thought they could do no wrong. Until they were faced with Apollo 13, and realized that if they made the wrong decision, 3 men would die in space. They got scared; real scared. And Gene Kranz had a 'come to Jesus meeting' with them all. When he was done, they had the courage to find the solution, to fix the problem. And three men came back safely to earth.
Every day you will get up, and you will be determined to get just a little closer to that wall. Maybe tomorrow it is just a millimeter, or maybe it is a foot, or maybe you fall back an inch. But you will keep getting back up and try again the next day. Resignation IS letting down those you love. Perseverance is showing those you love just how much you do love them. In the end, they will love you more because of it.
There are no obstacles, only challenges. Each day, at midnight, the day is over. If you have not faced all of today's challenges, you will not be fully prepared for tomorrow's challenges. Think of all the hardships human's have faced for millennia; and will face for millennia more. You, we, can all rise up and face those challenges. Your future, hell the future of the human race, depends on you, and all of us. You can do this. If you are down, consider my hand reaching to help you back up and into the fight. Love, Michelle
BTW, the title to Gene Kranz's book is; "Failure Is Not An Option".
