Disappointment hurts. It hurts most when it is from yourself. You work hard towards something and eventually you make mistakes. Mistakes can be avoided, but sometimes it feels like a mistake is all you can make.
You walk through the doors of righteousness, you stand tall in the face of defeat, you prosper even when the obstacles weigh a ton but eventually you give out. You try your best to avoid the temptation, not give in to your desires, but in the end you must ask yourself what do you do it for?
Are you trying to reach a new level of enlightenment? Do you feel you are not good enough for the path you are on? Do you feel you have failed before you started to make the moves you really wanted to make?
This is only some of the questions I ask myself. Day by day I ask myself "Are you ready for the day?" I always say yes even when I'm not. I give each day my full amount even when I feel like I'm walking towards a losing battle. I have to get up, I have to move forward. If I don't get up, how will progress? In any way possible, I try to move forward. Tomorrow isn't promised, so I do what I have to do to survive.
I ask myself "What is defeat?" "What is success?" I can never come up with a clear answer to each. What one defines it, is different from the other. So now I ask myself, "Am I walking towards success or defeat?"... Not sure if the answer is one or the other or both.
Strive, persevere, stand tall, prosper. Accept the deeds you have done, accept what isn't. Fight for what you feel is right, fix what you can that you feel is not.
Every day is a new day to fix yourself, make better on some mistakes. If it's not the end, it can be a new beginning. If it is the end... Then it is a new beginning.
