UPS AND DOWNS

“Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn't. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted.” This quote is from the book “Tuesdays with Morrie” by Mitch Albom. Morrie calls it “The tension of opposites”. Never in my life have I felt this more real than I do these days.

I know I’ve wanted things to happen to me recently. I’ve taken steps believing that I’m heading towards my goal, yet I already knew from the start that I’d never make it. At the times I am happiest, I am also the saddest. I’ve taken two steps forward and two steps back. Knowing that I’m at a dead end in my journey, I still trudge along doing the little that I can.

“The tension of opposites”, I’m living it.
