Acceptance

All our life we are told to never give up, keep trying, don’t give in. Movies are made about people who achieve greatness through perseverance. Usually, a physical challenge that seems unattainable in someway. This is good advice but it’s not always the right advice. 

     Sometimes you have to accept that you can no longer do what you did in your thirties or forties. This should not be considered a fault or failure and it won’t happen to everyone at the same age. It’s one of life’s changes, one of many. Don’t worry you will always have challenges, physical, mental and spiritual, but there will come a time when you might need to let go of old challenges to take on new challenges. This is acceptance, consider it growth. One of these new challenges may lead to the greatness you seek. 

     Never give up seeking challenges, but don’t hold on too long to an old one or you might miss a new one that will take you across the finish line. “Just Saying . . .”
