Tire me

We live in an unbalanced world. As soon as we accept that, we will make the most of our time.

When things are good, it only takes one incident to dampen your morale. When things are bad, eventually (and sometimes suddenly) something great happens and makes you smile again.

It’s been this way for years. I guess life is a collection of reminders that we don’t have a lot of time left. We have good times and bad times.

As I’ve said before on this site. How can you really savour the sweetness of the orange if you’ve never tasted the bitterness of the lemon?

Our highs are joyous because they lift us far beyond our normal state. Our lows take us to new levels of disappointment.

Throughout your lifetime, you can decide to collect and reflect on bad moments or you can look back on only the good ones. There are times when you feel tired, you get tired. You get frustrated that all the bad things occur at once.

This is what I call resilience. We all need to rise above it. Feeling tired? Then run a marathon! We all can.
Fight back!
Our minds hold us back!
We must continue!
It’s going to be like this, every day, until our last day here. We may as well get good at it.

So as I sit here close to midnight, tired, frustrated, I take all my mental energy and look forward to tomorrow. I was born for this.

Nothing can ever tire me! I will never stop advancing. Time is under my control. I’m too busy living well to let myself really get tired.
