“Never confuse a single defeat with a final defeat.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald

You lost the game.

You won it next week.

You fell down.

You got back up.

You’ve been hated.

You’ve been loved.

Why is it easier for people to cling to the negative?

It could be, like Tupac said, that “fear is stronger than love.”

Or it could be the result of societies current dogmas.

Societies change, history shows us this, but it always begins at an individual level.

You may have been defeated once, or even hundreds of times, but life is not done with you yet.

Don’t confuse a single defeat with a final defeat.

Persevere.

“Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.”

Where are you going?

What’s the rush?

Sometimes a sense of urgency is necessary, and sometimes it’s not.

And sometimes we’re all so busy rushing around that we forget the joy in this moment.

Take a deep breath.

Be here, now.

And from here, you can go anywhere.

Imagine you are walking through knee-deep snow in the woods.

It’s Winter & the snow is still falling.

You are dressed in warm winter clothes; protected from the cold.

To grandmothers house you go. Alone.

You brought your favorite camera with you to take pictures of the gorgeous scenery surrounding you.

The sun is shining. It’s midday.

No one else is around.

Silence.

You breathe & enjoy this moment.

“For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.”
—Proverbs 24:16

You’ve stumbled. You’ve fallen. But you won’t let this keep you down. Not again. Not this time.

You’ve been created on this planet with a purpose. Some people find their purpose & live it out, while others contribute to purpose without knowing.

To find and live your true purpose requires a righteous pursuit. On this path you will fall much more than 7 times, but you will continue to rise and be stronger with each comeback.

You can go through your entire life with your eyes “closed”, or you can open your heart, mind, and soul and find the treasure that it waiting for you.

It’s your choice.

Pray about it.

Dream about it.

Love your fate.

& Rise again.
