Always get up

Nothing builds you up like being at the rock bottom and finding your way up. Through the pain, the tears and the conviction that things can’t get any worse and they just have to get better.

The struggle and the strength you summon to get up is a manifestation of the powerhouse you really are. Sometimes, you’re the only one who can get yourself up as it’s more mental than physical. When your mind is clear and set, you find that other things are just obstacles you can either remove, go around or break to keep moving.

Somehow, this gives life meaning and purpose. It widens your perspective and opens your eyes to some blind spots you might have. Instinctively, it’s easier to ignore them but the reality as is will bring you back to that point again. The sooner you face those spots, the better for you. You can’t cheat/ignore reality.
