Day 1734: To quit or to carry on?

Even when you feel like quitting carry on – that’s my message to the world.

 

It’s 1 : 33  PM on day 1734 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray,  read Micah 2, publish my Disability of the Day feature,   learn one new thing –Koalas have an oddly small brain, with nearly half of the cranial cavity filled with fluid. “There’s no creature on Earth with a brain so aberrant,” one scientist said. If the shriveled brain were not well cushioned by membranous tissue, it would rattle around like a seed in a pod. – feed myself egg with bread for breakfast, go shopping and go visit family.

 

Yesterday I had a really rough day I just wanted to curl up into a ball and lie on my bed forever but I woke up today ready to start again I think carrying on when you feel like quitting is the most important key to success.

    Isaiah 41:10 King James Version (KJV)

    10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

    It takes great courage to get up, to keep moving even when, especially when you don’t feel like it.

    “Knock, And He’ll open the door
    Vanish, And He’ll make you shine like the sun
    Fall, And He’ll raise you to the heavens
    Become nothing, And He’ll turn you into everything.”
    ― Rumi

    I hope you are feeling better. I’ve been having a few days like this as well. So I wasn’t sure what to write, and I’m still not sure. I believe you are right though, the most important thing is to carry on. And sometimes that can be as simple as just waking up. Sometimes it helps me to believe what others I trust believe is possible, even though it seems unreal to me. I remember once being devastated by something that happened to someone I loved. I didn’t know how this person would go on, how I would go on knowing I had unintentionally been a part of the reason they were in pain. After some time had passed, someone I trusted said to me, ‘what if it isn’t a big deal to them, what if they are okay now? What if they don’t think about it much?’ It sounds so simple but I couldn’t look past my own way of seeing the world, and how limiting my perspective was making my life. So I’m going to be on the side of hope. The side of infinite possibilities, the side of God.
    I’ve probably shared this all this before. So if I have I apologize, my mind has gone a bit.
