Thought for the Day

Two posts in two days... I'm feeling encouraged.

I woke up this morning feeling a bit down. Maybe it was the lack of sleep. Maybe it was my lament over the seemingly endless cycle of medical appointments (radiologists, endocrinologists and ENT specialists, oh my!).  And yet, always, deep within my spirit stirs an incessant hope of better days ahead. So, it's not at all surprising to me that today of all days, just when my rational mind felt like giving up on something that I had been believing for, I happened upon this:
"Sometimes it feels better to take the easy way out, but it's never truly satisfying."
In the past when things would get tough, I tended to jump ship, just disappear—physically or emotionally, or both. That hasn't served me well. To my dear friends, just hang in there! Your dreams are only as out-of-reach as you think they are.

Shoot for the stars! If you miss and only hit the moon, so what?!
