Have you ever failed at anything? I have. Have you ever fallen, either physically or figuratively, and felt you did not have the strength to keep on trying? I have. Have you ever felt lost or confused and did not have the motivation to even try to get out of the hole you have dug for yourself or the energy to attempt to get out of the pit in which life has placed you? I have. I guess most of us have been in these situations.
But there is good news! It is a new day and can be a new beginning; we can get back up and keep trying to be the best we can be. I find this is only possible with God’s help. Here are a few sayings to help us pull ourselves up by our bootstraps no matter what happens.
“This thing called failure is not the falling down but the staying down.”
(Author unknown, at least to me.)
(I happen to know the person in the photo, and he did get up and had many triumphant sledding moments after this fall. He could have given up, but he tried again and was glad that he did:-)
