Courage doesn’t always roar …

Courage doesn't always roar.  Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day, saying "I will try again tomorrow."  Mary Anne Racmacher

Courage is the ability to try again?  Hmmmm.  I really like this idea.  I typically think of courage when it comes to trying something new or doing something I really want to, but am absolutely scared of doing.

Going through serious health issues recently, I can tell you there were soooo many days I just didn’t have the energy to go, go, go … where all I could do was just get from one thing to the next only to have to sit down again to rest.  I was forced to be in stillness because my body just didn’t have what it took to do much moving.

So it feels like a hug when I read this quote.  This idea that it is courageous to accept that “I will try again tomorrow” instead of being frustrated about what I presently can’t do = a breath of fresh air. Tomorrow is another day, another chance, another opportunity to get up and try again.

Question: Are you discouraged lately by a project or a situation that, despite your love and attention, isn’t going well?

Food For Thought:  Are you willing to release your grip, just a fraction?

Challenge:  Are willing to whisper to yourself  “I will try again tomorrow?”
