Get Up And Start Again

Perhaps the hardest thing  in life is when we put in 100 percent effort and still fail at that thing we were trying to achieve. 

There is, perhaps, the choice to call it a day. 
It’s not really an option to be honest though. So we learn, we try and get smarter, and we make it stick next time. 

That’s the journey we’re on. It’s that or simply seeing our time out as bystanders and observers of other people’s journeys. 

And put like that, doing anything more than simply existing, sounds like a miserable existence of hard work and drudgery, when in fact it’s a fantastic privilege. An opportunity  for  joyful experiences and moments of wonder, to counter those disappointments and losses. 

Just the one life for all of that, as far as I can tell.
