On Standing Up and Moving Forward


This thing we call life isn't always easy. It isn't always fun.

It's hard and murky and messy and complicated and beautiful and filled with moments, both of sadness and exquisite joy.

Sometimes we feel shrouded in darkness, like we don't know where to go or which way to turn. We can't see what's ahead, and we feel fixed in place, afraid to move forward, afraid to step back.

Stuck.

But we're braver than we know, and more resilient then even we thought possible.

So we don't stay stuck. We don't still.

Instead we stand up, take a deep breath of the brand new spring air, lift our heads, and move on forward.

Because up ahead is where all the good things are.

Just waiting to be discovered.

  1. I hope this is true. I've hit a little depression over here, so I'm clinging to this. Let us both hang in there!
